Darius Ashley , rising senior tailback out of St. Xavier (Cincinnati, OH), has received double digit Division 1A scholarship offers. The University of Virginia was the first offer for Ashley, who continues to be recruited heavily by the Cavaliers coaching staff. The persistence has not gone unnoticed, as UVa is one of the top three schools on Ashley’s list according to St. Xavier head coach Steve Specht.
