5-star Clemson target commits elsewhere

A five-star Clemson target in the class of 2022 committed elsewhere on Saturday evening.

Greensboro (N.C.) Grimsley defensive tackle Travis Shaw announced his commitment to North Carolina during a ceremony at Grimsley High School.

Shaw (6-5, 310) chose the Tar Heels over his three other finalists — Clemson, Georgia and North Carolina A&T.

He is rated as a five-star prospect by Rivals and the 247Sports Composite, the latter of which considers him the No. 2 defensive lineman and No. 4 overall prospect in the 2022 class.

Shaw took official visits to UNC and UGA in June and visited Clemson for the Elite Retreat that month as well.
