Coach Says: Dan will be a three year starter for us on both sides of the ball. He had 13.5 TFL’s on D last year and did not allow a sack on O. Dan has excellent feet and technique on both sides of the ball. He is one of the top big man recruits in District One and Eastern PA. He has offers from Monmouth and Sacred Heart, with more to come. We expect Dan to anchor both trenches for us providing leadership for the rest of those units.
