RETURNING STANDOUT

2028 Wyoming East ATH/EDGE Grayson Ashley has been a key piece of the Warriors’ program since stepping onto the field as a freshman and has grown into one of the leaders of the program. Ashley is a vocal leader who also leads by example, and his presence has been a big part of the progress Wyoming East has made with its young roster. He’ll see plenty of work at running back this season while also moving around defensively, with more snaps at linebacker expected this season along with his usual defensive line prowess. Ashley brings a strong frame and the physicality to make an impact wherever the Warriors line him up, making him one of the most important players in the program.

Wyoming East continues to work through a rebuilding stretch, but Grayson Ashley Grayson Ashley 6'2" | 220 lbs | EDGE Wyoming East | 2028 State WV has already emerged as one of the young pieces the Warriors can build around moving forward. Since stepping onto the field as a freshman, the 2028 EDGE has shown the kind of presence and leadership you do not always see from a player that early in his career. Ashley carries himself with confidence and has a well-built frame that allows him to impact the game on the defensive front. His frame suggests he could eventually settle in as a true defensive end with his hand in the dirt. Still, he also has the potential to develop as a stand-up edge rusher depending on how his body and athleticism progress. If that development comes, Ashley has the tools to remain one of the more intriguing defensive prospects in the 2028 class.

Wyoming East may be rebuilding in recent seasons, but they’ll have a good piece to build around in 2028 EDGE/DL Grayson Ashley Grayson Ashley 6'2" | 220 lbs | EDGE Wyoming East | 2028 State WV . He was a standout freshman for the Warriors last season and a team leader as a young player. Ashley totaled 99 tackles and 6 sacks in his first year of high school, and is built well for his age, which translated to early success. He caught our eye at the Concord Prospect Camp earlier this summer without having seen any game film before then, but was certainly on our radar after a productive freshman season. Ashley has since produced film, which led him to earn the #4 EDGE ranking in the 2028 class, with a bright future coming for the rising sophomore. He has the potential to grow into an every-down defensive end with his hand in the dirt with the frame he possesses. If Ashley can improve overall athleticism, he’ll have the opportunity to stick as a stand-up edge rusher as well.

I’ve been anxious to get eyes on 2028 Wyoming East EDGE/DE Grayson Ashley Grayson Ashley 6'2" | 220 lbs | EDGE Wyoming East | 2028 State WV as an athlete who we knew had talent but had yet to see film of. He flashed at the Concord Prospect Camp and looks the part physically in person. Ashley can make strides in his athletic testing numbers as he gets more experience, but I thought he moved well in his football moves. If he continues to grow physically, Ashley is someone who could have his hand in the dirt full time with some very good early size to develop.
