Loyola Academy’s Charlie Gross has made his college choice.
The standout offensive lineman, who will be a senior this fall for the Ramblers, has made a verbal commitment to Fordham University.
Gross (6-foot-5, 280 pounds) received offers from a number of other schools, including Western Michigan, New Mexico, Indiana State, Holy Cross, Western Kentucky, Ohio, Northern Illinois, Buffalo, Toledo, Miami of Ohio, Bowling Green, Central Michigan and Ball State.
Fordham finished 8-3 last fall. The Rams went 5-1 in the Patriot League.
