After Thursday, the Inter-AC League will now boast a trio of Division-1 FBS recruits.
Matt Galambos, a 6’2, 220-pound tight end/linebacker from Haverford School, issued a verbal declaration to Pitt Thursday, according to national recruiting service Scout.com.
Including the Panthers, Galambos held a total of six scholarship offers, including Rutgers, Syracuse, Temple, Harvard and Yale, while Boston College, Maryland and Penn State all showed interest.
Scout.com ranked the Fords’ senior-to-be as the No. 22 middle linebacker in the 2013 recruiting class and rated him as a three-star prospect. Galambos joins William Penn Charter’s Mike McGlinchey (four-star OL) and Daryl Worley (three-star WR/S) as Division-1 FBS recruits from the Inter-AC League in 2013 – McGlinchey declared to Notre Dame and Worley declared to West Virginia.
Galambos played an integral role both offensively and defensively for the Fords in 2011, finishing as the team’s featured receiver by hauling in 27 passes for 436 yards and six touchdowns, averaging 16.2 yards per reception while finishing five games with three or more receptions and one 100-yard game. Defensively, he added 88 tackles (61 solo), four sacks, three interceptions, three forced fumbles, a fumble recovery and a blocked field goal, averaging 8.8 tackles per game.
Haverford School finished 6-4 in 2011, averaging 26.5 points per game.
