Bishop McDevitt’s talented field general Matt Johnson has verbally committed to Bowling Green today (June 25), according to reports published by Andy Shay of the Harrisburg Patriot-News.

Johnson is the second Keystone State prospect in the recruiting class of 2011 to commit to a Mid American Conference program this week – George Washington’s TE/OLB Brandon Chudnoff committed to Temple Wednesday.

According to recruiting services Scout.com and Rivals.com, Johnson had two additional scholarship offers besides Bowling Green – Miami (OH) and Temple. Johnson also had received interest, but no scholarship offers, from schools like Boston College, Colorado, Duke, Iowa, Pitt, Rutgers and Virginia, according to Scout.

Johnson is easily the best returning quarterback to District 3. He threw for 2,010 yards and 22 touchdowns as a sophomore, leading McDevitt to a 10-3 record. Johnson lit up the stat sheets in his junior season, throwing for 2,731 yards and 33 touchdowns against only seven interceptions (stats according to Maxpreps.com).

Johnson’s 4,741 passing yards and 55 touchdowns are both tops among all returning District 3 quarterbacks in 2010.

McDevitt finished the 2009 season with a 12-1 overall record, amassing averages of 413.7 yards and 43.3 points per game, finishing as the runners-up in the District 3 “AAAA” championship game to Cumberland Valley in a 34-27 double overtime thriller in Hershey.
