District 2-5A's defensive MVP from Parkland High School and outside linebacker Josh Wells will stay home as he announced his commitment to UTEP ahead of next Wednesday's National Signing Day.
Wells, 6'2, 225 pounds, had a monster senior year piling up 25 sacks which ranked tops among pass rushers in the entire state this past season. He was also used as a blocking tight end at times, and also caught four passes for 35 yards.
He ended his senior season with 132 tackles, 14 tackles for loss, and blocked two punts off the edge this past season, showing his athletic ability, and explosiveness off the ball.
