Boston College picked up a commitment from class of 2026 defensive lineman Mac Fitzgerald on Thursday evening.

Fitzgerald is a product of Catholic Memorial High School in West Roxbury, Mass., the second commitment from Catholic Memorial in his class, joining three-star offensive tackle Marcelino Antunes Jr.

The 6-foot-4, 250-pound defensive weapon is the fourth commitment for Boston College’s class of 2026. He joins Antunes, three-star quarterback Corin Berry (Covina, Calif.), and offensive lineman Dean Ruksnaitis (Easthampton, Mass.) which currently places the Eagles at No. 37 overall and No. 6 overall in the recruiting rankings.

Fitzgerald, who was on campus on Thursday for Hangout On The Heights, was one of numerous recruits to announce their decision on Thursday. Ruksnaitis committed earlier in the day as well as class of 2026 defensive back Max Tejpaul (PWO).
