Primary recruiter(s) in the state: Colin Hitschler, a Philadelphia native, was an ace recruiter for Wisconsin in the 2024 class. But he is now the safeties coach at Alabama, and the Badgers have a void in the state for the time being. Hitschler laid the groundwork with a handful of athletes in the 2025 class and it will be interesting to see how the staff is able to bridge those relationships.

Number of Pennsylvania athletes on the current roster (including the 2024 class): 5

Number of known offers extended in Pennsylvania in 2024 class: 12

Hotspot(s): Institute Charter School, St. Joseph's, St. Peter's

Notable past recruits from Pennsylvania: Bryan Savage, Mike Caputo, Alex Hornibrook, Hayden Rucci, Preston Zachman, Nolan Rucci, Ryan Cory, Kevin Heywood and Omillio Agard, among others.
