WVU quarterbacks coach Rhett Rodriguez called Wood to inform him of West Virginia’s interest. Wood is coming off an incredibly productive and efficient junior season that saws him lead the Xaverian Brothers High School team to its third state title in a row.

Wood threw for over 2,800 passing yards and tossed 42 touchdowns to just one interception.

Proud to say we were able to Three-Peat as State Champions. Thank you to my teammates, staff, and Xaverian community for a great Junior Season!
