Wake Forest Football Recruiting: WR Malik Grate Commits to Wake Forest

Wake Forest extended Pendleton High School wide receiver Malik Grate a scholarship offer last week, and tonight he accepted that offer and committed to play football at Wake Forest University. He is listed as a two-star cornerback on Rivals, but the staff recruited him as a wide receiver. Last season Grate had 36 receptions for 475 yards and 7 touchdowns. His only other scholarship offer is from Furman, though he was receiving attention from the Clemson staff.
