This is an article that’s been a while coming, but then the recruiting process is no hurry either. Malvern Prep DB TyGee Leach on the other hand, had three offers in a short 2 month span, but decided he’d seen enough and chose to commit to the Mountain Hawks of Lehigh.  The 5-11, 190 pound senior DB/WR joined teammates Jake Hornibrook (Stanford) and Keith Maquire (Clemson) to give Malvern Prep three D1 commits heading into this season.
