Wide receiver agrees to play football at Virginia

Al Groh received his seventh verbal commitment for the 2006-07 season, as rising high school senior Chris Dalton chose to commit to the Cavaliers, according to the Roanoke Times.

The 6'2", 162-pound wide receiver from Statesville, N.C. received scholarship offers from both Virginia and Clemson after running a speedy 4.38 40-yard dash at the Nike All-Star camp in Blacksburg, Va. in April.

During his junior season, Dalton had 37 receptions for 525 yards and also started at cornerback and returned kicks.
