Adolphus Washington's stature as one of the nation?s top high school athletes was evident in Florida during a prominent basketball tournament in mid-December.

While Taft was playing in the City of Palms Classic in Fort Myers, Washington, who has verbally committed to Ohio State for football, encountered plenty of fans who sought autographs and took pictures with the 6-foot-4, 260-pound standout.

Adolphus Washington nation's best prep athlete? | cincinnati.com

Adolphus Washington's stature as one of the nation's top high school athletes was evident in Florida during a prominent basketball tournament in mid-December.

While Taft was playing in the City of Palms Classic in Fort Myers, Washington, who has verbally committed to Ohio State for football, encountered plenty of fans who sought autographs and took pictures with the 6-foot-4, 260-pound standout.

Washington didn?t seek the extra attention from the fans in Florida - those fans young and old - and several of which wore Ohio State shirts and hats.

In fact, he turned down an opportunity to be a part of the tournament slam dunk contest because he wanted the focus to be on his team. Yet, he understands the responsibilities of being a top recruit.

"It's cool with me," said Washington, who is a star forward on the Taft basketball team. "Whatever people want."
