On National Signing day Wednesday the Mountain Hawks announced eighteen student-athletes will join Lehigh football program in the fall.

The incoming group features four players from Pennsylvania.

Mahanoy Area’s Tyler Cavenas signed a letter of intent to continue his academic and football career with Lehigh University. Cavenas dominated both sides of the ball. He was named first team All-State by the Associated Press as well as EasternPAFootball.com and was named first-team by the Anthracite Football League at both Offensive and Defensive lineman. He was a three-year starter and on defense he had 88 tackles, 39 tackles for loss and 8 sacks. He was recruited as a defensive lineman.

Riverside’s Nico Munley is one of the top players up in District two and has earned All-Region the last two years. His junior year he caught 36 passes for 796 yards and 11 touchdowns. His senior year he caught 38 passes for 539 yards and three scores.

Wilson West Lawn’s Matt Timochenko helped lead his team to a 12-1 record. He passed for over 1,500 yards and 15 touchdowns. He helped lead the Bulldogs to a sixth straight Section One title and a Lancaster-Lebanon league 44 game-winning streak. The 6-foot-3, 210-pound quarterback should add depth.
