Lineman Peter Rooney made his commitment to UConn official on Wednesday, signing his National Letter of Intent to officially be a part of the Huskies’ 2018 recruiting class.
The 6-foot-5, 281-pound Atlanta, Georgia native verbally committed to UConn on July 29 via Twitter. He spent his career at Westminster playing on the offensive line and as a defensive end while serving as the long snapper on special teams. He was a Georgia AAA first-team all-state lineman at Westminster in 2016.
Rooney is rated a 2-star prospect by Rivals and is listed as an offensive tackle, but will likely be tried out at numerous positions on the line once he gets to Storrs.
