Pitt Makes Top Five For Four-Star DE Dominic Kirks

The Pitt Panthers are a finalist for a four-star defender from Ohio.

PITTSBURGH -- The Pitt Panthers are a contender for one of the best defensive ends available in the class of 2024. 

Four-star edge rusher Dominic Kirks, a native of Cleveland, Ohio who attends Villa Angela-St. Joseph High School, still has some official visits to make but included Pitt in a top five that also featured Kentucky, Washington, Nebraska and Wisconsin. 

Kirks, a 6'5 and 250-pound edge defender, is rated as a four-star prospect by On3 and a three-star player by 247Sports. On3 ranks him as high as the No. 11 player in Ohio and the No. 28 defensive lineman nationally in the class of 2024.

The 6'5, 250-pound junior has already been out to Seattle to see Washington this spring and visited Ohio State, Cincinnati, and West Virginia earlier this year. After visiting Wisconsin this past weekend, Kirks will head back to Pacific Northwest to visit the Huskies again.
