Three more football recruits commit to UH

By Stephen Tsai
Advertiser Staff Writer

A few hours after securing a verbal commitment from Castle High School linebacker Blaze Soares, the University of Hawai'i football team today received commitments from linebacker Solomon Elimimian of Crenshaw High School in Los Angeles, running back/linebacker Mario Cox of McClymonds High in Oakland, and defensive tackle Siave Seti of West Los Angeles College.

Elimimian, the younger brother of former UH defensive back Abraham Elimimian, told The Advertiser, "I'm going to commit. I felt comfortable on my trip (last week). It's a good place."

Cox, who is 5 feet 11 and 231 pounds, rushed for 1,225 yards and 25 touchdowns as a senior. On defense, he amassed 105 tackles, including 20 for losses, and had 8.5 sacks, five forced fumbles and four interceptions.

Seti is 6 feet 3 and 315 pounds.
