Breaking News: 4-Star Pennsylvania LB Anthony Sacca Commits to Notre Dame
In a major boost for Notre Dame’s 2025 recruiting class, four-star linebacker Anthony Sacca from Pennsylvania has officially committed to the Fighting Irish. Sacca, a standout defensive talent, made the announcement earlier today, adding another elite recruit to Coach Marcus Freeman’s rapidly growing class. Known for his speed, power, and versatility, Sacca is widely regarded as one of the top linebackers in the country.
Standing at 6’4” and weighing 230 pounds, Sacca has drawn attention from top programs nationwide due to his dynamic playmaking ability. His exceptional athleticism allows him to excel both in coverage and as a sideline-to-sideline tackler, making him a perfect fit for Notre Dame’s aggressive defense. With the ability to rush the passer, cover tight ends, and stop the run, Sacca is expected to be an impact player for the Fighting Irish.
Sacca’s commitment is particularly significant, as he had offers from several powerhouse programs, including Ohio State, Michigan, and Georgia. Despite the fierce competition, Sacca chose Notre Dame, citing the school’s winning tradition, academic excellence, and the opportunity to play for a program with a national championship pedigree.
The addition of Sacca further strengthens Notre Dame’s defense and adds to a stellar 2025 recruiting class that already features several highly-rated prospects. The Irish have also secured commitments from five-star quarterback Jake McDonald and four-star wide receiver Derrick Thompson, and Sacca’s decision to commit to Notre Dame signals a bright future for the program under Freeman’s leadership.
Sacca’s decision is expected to have a ripple effect on the recruiting trail, as Notre Dame continues to attract top-tier talent across the country. Fans are excited about the prospect of Sacca teaming up with other key recruits to help Notre Dame compete for championships in the years ahead.
