… the University of Virginia football program has offered two Potomac Falls (Sterling, VA) prospects. Class of 2019 safety Dean Ferguson scored an offer from the Hoos late last month. Coach Bronco Mendenhall has now offered a scholarship to Panthers rising senior linebacker Grant Misch, who has enjoyed steady success on the recruiting trail this year.

Misch, who measured in at 6’4.5”, 235 pounds at The Opening Regional in Charlotte on May 7, 2017, registered 96 tackles (74 solo) with 11.5 tackles for loss, five forced fumbles and one interception his junior season. Air Force, Army, Maryland, Navy, Purdue and Rutgers have also extended scholarships to the Potomac Falls standout, a linebacker and tight end in high school.
Both Misch and Ferguson visited UVA earlier this spring to watch a practice. Stay tuned for updates on both players soon, but in the meantime check out Misch’s junior season highlights below.
