On Friday of last week, Virginia Tech added a commitment from one of the top prospects in the state of Virginia. George Washington-Danville safety Cameron Martin , who has received nine scholarship offers, verbally committed to the Hokies last week.

“Yeah he’s committed,” GW-Danville Head Coach Dan Newell said. “He committed on Friday afternoon. He’s very excited about it.”

Martin decided to commit to Virginia Tech shortly after narrowing his list of schools to four.

“Originally he wanted to narrow his list down at the end of May,” Newell said. “At that point, he would decide who he wanted to visit again during the summer and decide by fall. He narrowed it down to four schools at the end of May – UVa, Virginia Tech, NC State, and Tennessee. While I was in the process of notifying all of the schools who had offered him that this is what he was doing, he came in and said he didn’t want to visit anymore schools this summer and he was solid on what he wanted to do. I talked to his Dad and he agreed it was a done deal that he was going to Virginia Tech. He felt strongly enough about his decision so he went ahead and committed.”
