"We are excited to add Steven, and his wife Peyton, to the Bluejay family," said Creighton head coach Greg McDermott via press release. "His ability to stretch the floor with the three-point shot and make great decisions with the pass is exactly what we were looking in the point guard position. In addition, he possesses the necessary leadership skills that fit perfectly with our returning players. We can't wait to get him on campus and in Bluejay uniform!"

The 6-foot-1 guard led the Aggies with 16.2 points per game while also contributing 4.8 assists and 3.3 rebounds per contest. He ranked ninth in the nation with 111 three-pointers made.

Ashworth, currently ranked the No. 91 in the Rivals Transfer Portal Rankings was also considering BYU, Gonzaga, Oklahoma State, Washington and VCU. He joins former Virginia Cavaliers forward Isaac Traudt, the No. 14 ranked player in the Rivals Transfer Portal Rankings, as portal recruits for McDermott.
