Another new Husky?

Posted by Bob Condotta

Scout.com reported late Sunday night that UW has received a commitment from receiver Dwayne Washington of Gahr High School in Cerritos, Calif.

That's the same school as 2011 signee Joshua Perkins, also a receiver. Both are pictured and featured in this story in the Long Beach Press-Telegram from last fall.

The 6-1, 195-pounder caught 38 passes for 638 yards last fall, though as the story above details, he was part of a deep receiving corps in which the ball was spread around quite a bit. He also has done some returning at Gahr and is a sprinter on the track team (results here).

Scout.com reported that Gahr offensive coordinator Jon Nielsen said Washington committed to UW on Sunday night.

He was reported to have offers from Utah, Colorado, Idaho and Nevada. He has yet to get a rating from Scout or Rivals.com.

He is the fifth known commitment for the Class of 2012, joining quarterbacks Cyler Miles (Mullen High in Denver) and Jeff Lindquist (Mercer Island), cornerback Darien Washington of Orange, Calif. (Orange Lutheran) and running back Tairen Owens of Pasadena (Muir).

The two commits named Washington will become the first two players with the surname Washington since safety Richard Washington in 1991.

Here is some video of Dwayne Washington:
