— Evan Powell (@evannn_powell) June 25, 2024
As a junior, Powell totaled 78 tackles, 10 sacks, and 17 tackles for loss. He has the makeup of a bandit (stand up edge rusher) in WVU's defense, but could also pad on more weight to play along the defensive line.
Powell becomes the fourth defensive line recruit in West Virginia's 2025 class joining Romando Johnson, Taylor Brown, and Amir Leonard-Jean Charles.
