Zachary is the No. 778 overall player and the No. 98 receiver in the country for the class of 2024, per 247Sports Composite rankings. He’s also the No. 11 player from the state of South Carolina.

He attends Calhoun County High School in Saint Matthews, South Carolina. He’s listed at 6-foot-3, 190 pounds.

Virginia now has 5 commitments in the 2024 recruiting cycle. Zachary is UVA’s top-ranked commitment. The group is ranked No. 64 in the country, per 247Sports Composite rankings.
