Elijah Harris Commits to Texas Tech
Blue Valley Northwest senior Elijah Harris has committed to play for the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Harris, a 6-foot-2, 180-pound kicker, chose the Big 12 program over other Division I offers. Harris is expected to compete for a starting role in Texas Tech's high-powered offense, which features a strong emphasis on special teams. The Red Raiders' coaching staff has expressed interest in Harris's leg strength and accuracy, and he is expected to contribute immediately. Harris also cited the school's strong academic program and research opportunities as factors in his decision. Harris decommitted from the University of Kansas in March after a coaching change. The Blue Valley Northwest Huskies' standout kicker is set to graduate in May 2026 and will enroll at Texas Tech in the fall.
