Another inside linebacker from the state of Illinois will come to Madison to play for the Badgers. Coming from the same high school as current Wisconsin ‘backer Mike Maskalunas, Maema Njongmeta was offered in October and committed to UW in early November in a very quick courtship.
Besides Maskalunas, Njongmeta adds to the list of those playing the position from the Land of Lincoln which includes All-American T.J. Edwards and former four-star standout Jack Sanborn.
