UNH for Schmalhofer

Nick Schmalhofer was a player that watched his stock rise intensely as signing day drew closer and finally today he ended his recruitment, giving a verbal commitment to the University of New Hampshire where he’ll line up at defensive end.

“We wanted to let you know that Nick will be going to UNH,” Schmalhofer said in an email.

The Lancaster, Pa., product registered 72 tackles, 21 tackles for loss, eight sacks and six pass break ups as a senior and had pancake blocks on offense.
