Isaiah Gash never got recruited as heavily as some thought he should have during a standout football career at Bay Port.

He’s not being overlooked anymore.

The 5-foot-10, 175-pound running back has spent the past three years as a walk-on for one of the best programs in the nation at the University of Michigan.

All his hard work paid off in another big way Monday morning, when Gash was informed by Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh that he had earned a scholarship.

Harbaugh said plenty of nice things about Gash throughout the season, giving his pupil hope this moment could be on its way at some point.
