Tight end Brendan Carozzoni of St. Ignatius High School in Rocky River, Ohio, made a verbal commitment to Pitt this afternoon.

Carozzoni (6-4, 215) is the 14th player from the class of 2010 to commit to the Panthers and the fourth player to commit in the month of July. He chose the Panthers over scholarship offers from West Virginia, Indiana, Illinois and Purdue.

He bench presses 315 pounds, has a vertical leap of 30 inches and runs the 40 yard dash in 4.6 seconds.
