Jake DeHart was pretty much everywhere the last few seasons for Cathedral Prep.
Now, the 5-foot-9, 163-pound athlete will take that versatility to the Ivy League. DeHart committed to Yale on Saturday, choosing the Bulldogs over scholarship offers from Air Force, Albany, Bucknell, Holy Cross and Youngstown State.
As a junior, DeHart caught 59 passes for 399 yards as a part of Cathedral Prep's PIAA Class AAA championship team. But this year, with other needs on the team, DeHart moved from his slot receiver position to tailback. DeHart made a smooth transition, rushing for 1,024 yards and 16 touchdowns as Cathedral Prep once again won District 10 and made another deep state playoff run.
DeHart didn't abandon his pass-catching abilities, either, as he caught 22 passes for 394 yards and six more touchdowns. DeHart also played some corner for Cathedral Prep, though he'll likely fit in as a slot receiver or running back for Yale.
