2019 Commitment Profile: Josh Ahern, linebacker

Lake Braddock linebacker signs with UVA

NCAA Football: William & Mary at Virginia Amber Searls-USA TODAY Sports

Name: Josh Ahern
Hometown (Team): Burke, VA (Lake Braddock)
Position: Linebacker (inside)
Height: 6-3
Weight: 220
Ratings:

  • 247 Sports: 3* (84.11)
  • Rivals: 3* (5.5)
  • ESPN: 3* (76)

What you should know:

  • Shows great patience to read plays as they develop, then sudden burst to close once he makes his read—and VERY violent finisher upon arrival.
  • High marks for special teams play. Even if he won’t see the field early as a regular defensive player, can contribute in kick coverage and as a return blocker.
  • Was UVA’s first in-state 2019 commitment, announcing in May that he’d become a Cavalier.
