Under Armour All-American Dakota Royer boasted over 20 Division 1A scholarship offers before whittling down his list of schools to 10. Virginia Tech is one of the 10 finalists for the 6-2 1/2, 215-pound rising senior defensive end/linebacker, who has totaled 22 sacks over the past two seasons at Manheim Central High School (Manheim, PA).

Asked which schools made his initial cut, Royer answered, “Notre Dame, Michigan State, Illinois, Penn State, Virginia Tech, UCLA, Oregon, West Virginia, Pitt and UNC.

“Now I plan on taking a few more visits this summer and then cut it down to five before the season.”

Royer has visited most of the schools in his top 10, but Virginia Tech is one of the exceptions. He plans to visit Tech, North Carolina and UCLA this summer before cutting the list of suitors to five. He’ll make all five official visits and plans to do so this fall.
