Scottsdale (Ariz.) Chaparral strong-side defensive end Anthony Lucas has one official visit locked in and hopes to take a couple more trips in June.
The visit he has locked in is for Notre Dame the weekend of June 11. Notre Dame offered the four-star recruit last summer, and for much of his recruitment, the Irish felt like a long shot to land Lucas. However, defensive line coach Mike Elston and defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman have made Lucas a big priority for Notre Dame’s 2022 class.
“They’re telling me that they’re all in on me,” Lucas said. “They’re recruiting me hard, and I’m the No. 1 recruit on their board right now. They’re not going to stop until they have me.”
