St. Joseph’s Prep linebacker Anthony Sacca announced his commitment to Notre Dame on Saturday, becoming the 19th pledge to the Fighting Irish’s football recruiting class of 2025.

The junior, who is ranked as 247Sports’ No. 27 linebacker in the nation and No. 7 recruit in the state, held scholarship offers from Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, and Penn State, where his father, Tony, a graduate of Delran High School, played quarterback from 1988-91.

The 6-foot-3, 225-pound Sacca started as a freshman with the Hawks. He had more than 18 college offers by the end of his sophomore season.

This past season, he finished with 67 total tackles, two interceptions, a sack, and a fumble return for a touchdown.

The Hawks finished with 13-1 while earning their second straight state championship. Sacca will be one of the main leaders next season for a St. Joe’s Prep team scheduled to graduate 28 seniors this year.
