Three-star offensive tackle Trey Boyd announced his commitment to Northwestern on Monday morning, just one day after his official visit on May 10-12.
Boyd, who hails from Shakopee (Minn.), has the typically expansive frame for a Big Ten tackle prospect at 6-foot-5 and 275 pounds. He chose Northwestern over offers from nine other programs and has one of the most competitive fields for a commit in the Wildcats' Class of 2025 commit so far.
He took an official visit to Arizona on May 3, and had visits scheduled for Purdue, Kansas and Iowa State in June. The Wildcats beat out other Power four programs like BYU, Cincinnati and home-state Minnesota, as well.
Boyd is the first tackle, and first offensive lineman, to commit to Northwestern's Class of 2025. He's also the first commit since the Wildcats announced the hiring of new offensive line coach Bill O'Boyle in February.
Boyd is Northwestern's sixth commit overall. The class is currently ranked 51st in the nation by Rivals.
