Defensive end Lorenzo Hernandez signs with Villanova Football

Cherry Hill West (N.J.) defensive end Lorenzo Hernandez has signed his Letter of Intent to play football at Villanova, the school announced this morning.

A 6’0" 250 lb. prospect, Hernandez excelled as a defensive tackle in high school, and also wrestled (LOVE those DLs who are former wrestlers!). He recorded 93 tackles and 10 sacks during his senior season, and blocked 5 kicks (4 FGs, 1 punt)! He was named 1st Team All-South Jersey and 2nd Team All-State in 2016.

Hernandez has incredible quickness off the snap and makes great use of his hands to shed blockers and make plays in the backfield.
