JUCO athlete Tyler Jacklich announces commitment to West Virginia

West Virginia has added another commitment from Merced College athlete Tyler Jacklich.

Jacklich, 6-foot-2, 223-pounds, announced his decision on Instagram.

“Blessed to be offered and committed to the West Virginia University,” he wrote in his commitment post.

The California native started his career at Wyoming in 2023 after a senior season where he rushed for 2,278 rushing yards on 201 carries and scored 32 touchdowns. 

That rushing total ranked him third in the state of California. 

Jacklich then ended up at Merced College and earned offers from Louisiana Tech and Middle Tennessee before committing to the Mountaineers.

“I’m enrolled this fall,” he said.

The junior college bounce back has three years left to play three.
