Brady O’Hara, 3-star Penn State commit, and North Catholic football have more to prove in 2024

Brady O’Hara’s playmaking and size caught the attention of scouts and coaches a while ago.

He’s a unique weapon as North Catholic football’s 6-foot-6, 245-pound tight end, big and fast and projectionable as a likely future offensive lineman at Penn State, where he committed in 2023. He’s a disruptive force as a defensive end for the Trojans’ as well, where that same size and speed puts him in opposing backfields regularly.

But it’s not an acrobatic catch or demonstrative stop at the line of scrimmage NC head coach Chris Rizzo remembers most.

The moment that sticks out for Rizzo, in his second year with the Trojans, came last year in a game against Hampton. The team’s starting long snapper went down with an injury mid-game. Rizzo or his staff could’ve plucked a lesser player to handle the position in an emergency capacity.
