On Sunday evening, the Villanova Wildcats picked up a verbal commitment from Patrick Lawler, a 6'7" 270 lb. offensive lineman from Braintree, Mass. Lawler announced his commitment via Twitter.
Happy to say I have committed to play football at Villanova University. Thank you to everyone whose helped me along the way. #NovaNation

Lawler attends Thayer Academy and played both offensive and defensive line in high school. At Villanova he'll join a deep and talented group on the offensive line, most likely projecting at tackle in the future.
