West Virginia has gained a commitment from junior college running back Martavious Boswell (5'10", 170 lbs) of Copiah-Lincoln C.C. He becomes the third JUCO skill player the Mountaineers have added in the 2026 class this month, joining wide receivers Keon Hutchins and Kedrick Triplett.

Boswell picked the Mountaineers over Kansas State, Mississippi State, and Tulsa. He also had interest from Arkansas State, Charlotte, Kennesaw State, Liberty, Louisiana Tech, Marshall, Missouri State, New Mexico State, Old Dominion, Southern Miss, Texas State, Toledo, Troy, Tulsa, UL Monroe, UTEP, UTSA, Washington State, and Western Michigan.

This season, the speedster rushed for over 1,100 yards and 13 touchdowns, which put him among the national leaders in all of junior college football. He becomes the third running back to commit to WVU in this cycle, joining high school recruits SirPaul Cheeks and Christopher Talley.
