The Arizona Wildcats got some good news from the recruiting trail on Wednesday when Nicholas Fernandez, a 3-star athlete from the Los Angeles area, announced his commitment to the UA.
Fernandez, who sits at 6-foot-4 and around 265 pounds, is a very good athlete for San Pedro High School in Southern California. He plays both tight end and defensive line for the Pirates, and is very productive in both roles. One wouldn’t think so, but he is surprisingly quick and has very good hands and concentration. Defensively, he is explosive. He is pretty quick off the snap and uses his hands effectively to shed blocks.
