Notre Dame Extends Offer to Eastside Catholic Kicker Carson Young
Notre Dame has extended an offer to 2026 kicker Carson Young of Eastside Catholic (3A) in Washington. Young, a 6-foot-1, 185-pound specialist, has been a key contributor for the Crusaders, booting 42 of 45 PATs and 10 of 12 field goals last season. The Crusaders' kicker has also been drawing attention from other top programs, including Oregon and Washington. Young's impressive leg strength and accuracy have made him a sought-after prospect in the 2026 recruiting class. With the offer from the Fighting Irish, Young's recruitment is heating up, and he is expected to take official visits to Notre Dame and other top contenders in the coming months. As the 2026 recruiting cycle begins, Young's name will be one to watch. The Eastside Catholic kicker is expected to announce his college decision in the spring of 2027, with early signing day looming on December 21, 2027.
