Kendall is the top recruit in the recruiting class and the second ESPN 300 recruit for the Eagles in this class. He is the top-ranked recruit in Massachusetts and a Top-100 recruit nationally.

"There is a reason Drew is ranked the top player in the state of Massachusetts," said Hafley. "He is smart, tough, talented and his potential is through the roof. Drew will be a force in the ACC and college football."
