RICHMOND, Va. — Varina wide receiver Markus 'Ocho' Lee verbally committed to the University of Virginia on Friday.
The former Hermitage standout chose the Cavaliers over several other schools, including East Carolina, Morgan State, and Howard.
Lee has not yet played a down for Varina, but his new teammates played a part in his decision to become a Cavalier.
"I got the offer two weeks ago, so they didn't really do a lot of talking, but when they were talking to me, they were telling me a lot of good stuff about the program," Lee said. "I would say they were doing a lot of recruitment, all of my teammates that go to UVA or that committed to UVA."
Lee is the fourth Blue Devil to commit to Virginia in the last two years.
