BAY AREA BITES RECRUITING

Pinellas Park ATH Tyree Graves picks up first offer

Ohio University offered Tyree Graves, a dynamic athlete who measured 6-feet 2.5-inches and weighed in at 222 pounds at the 2012 BHSN/BCP Ignite Showcase.

Ohio is the first school to offer Graves who can be a play maker with his hand in the dirt or as a linebacker.

He also reeled in 200 yards receiving and 3 touchdowns playing tight end for the Patriots.

Graves showcased his physique with his 96 inch reach, 24.5 inch vertical jump and 5.04 forty-yard dash at the Ignite Showcase.

Pinellas Park will continue to be a must-stop spot for college recruits in the Tampa Bay Area following the signings of Jeremi Powell and Inman Smith in 2011.
