Torrey Mack, a 6-foot, 195-pound running back from Stratford, Conn., is the highest-rated of four football prospects who committed to Virginia on Saturday at a one-day camp.

Rivals.com has awarded a four-star rating to Mack, who rushed for 1,800 yards and scored 21 touchdowns last season.

Mack also had 145 tackles as a junior and was named one of the top 250 prospects in the 2008 recruiting class by rivals.com, which had him rated No. 18 under the "athlete" designation.

The Cavaliers also took commitments from a pair of Washington-area skill players in Rodney McLeod from DeMatha in Hyattsville, Md., and Devin Wallace from Friendly in Fort Washington, Md.

A fourth UVa recruit was 6-5, 200-pound Ausar Walcott, a defensive back from Hackensack, N.J., who might play outside linebacker because of his size.

Mack said in a late May interview that the four schools that interested him the most were UVa, Michigan, Iowa and Connecticut. He also had offers from Virginia Tech, Maryland and Penn State, according to rivals.com.

McLeod, who would join Brennan Schmidt as the only DeMatha players to sign with Virginia in the past decade, also had Tech on his list and also had offers from Illinois, Michigan State, Maryland and Syracuse.

McLeod had 20 receptions for 400 yards and seven TDs, but, like Wallace, also has played defensive back.

Virginia has eight commitments for the class of 2008, including five in the past week.

The Virginia women's basketball team has gotten commitments for the 2008 from twins Whitny and Britny Edwards from Providence Country Day in Charlotte, N.C.

The Edwards sisters are daughters of one-time East Carolina basketball star Theodore "Blue" Edwards, who scored more than 7,500 points in a 10-year NBA career.

Louisville, West Virginia and George Washington were among the schools that had offered scholarships to the twins, according to the Charlotte Observer.
