Luke Montgomery has been one of Ohio State’s top offensive line targets in the recruiting class of 2023 since he received an offer from the Buckeyes in February.
Until Friday night, however, Montgomery hadn’t actually played a high school football game on the offensive line.
After playing on the defensive line and at tight end for Findlay High School last season, Montgomery made his first start at left tackle on Friday night, when he helped lead the Trojans to a 24-14 win over Anthony Wayne in the first game of his junior season.
While Montgomery previously told Eleven Warriors in June that he preferred playing defensive line, he said after Friday night’s game at Findlay’s Donnell Stadium that he is starting to get comfortable at offensive tackle – though he knows he still has a lot to work on.
