Yesterday on Twitter, the Wyoming Area senior running back Aaron Crossley announced he committed to Lehigh University.
“My dream as a football player ever since the age of five was to play Division 1 football and I worked every day to get there. But, saying that, the job isn’t anywhere close to done. After talking with my family, I am super excited to announce that I will be verbally committing to LEHIGH UNIVERSITY. A special thank you to Coach Cahill, Coach Warren, and the rest of the coaching staff to give me such a special opportunity and making Lehigh feel like home. GO MOUNTAIN HAWKS.”
Crossley led the Warriors last season, rushing for 2,115 yards on 222 carries and scoring 24 touchdowns. He set a school record for rushing yards and rushing touchdowns in a game with seven.
On defense, he had 32 solo tackles, 10.5 TFL, three sacks, and 55 total tackles.
Aaron is a top ‘24 PA prospect and a PIAA Class AA State 100 meter finalist,” said Head Football Coach Randy Spencer. “ He is an outstanding player, leader, teammate, student, and young man, with a tremendous work ethic.”
