BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana continued its recruiting hot streak on Friday when  Austin, Texas offensive lineman Bray Lynch committed to the Hoosiers.

Lynch announced his decision on Twitter on Friday night.

Lynch is a 6-foot-4, 280-pound tackle who plays at Westlake High School in Austin. He is Indiana's 11th overall recruit in the Class of 2022 and the second from Texas. Quarterback Josh Hoover of Rockwall is the other. He is a three-star recruit in the 247Sports composite rankings.

Lynch narrowed his list to Indiana, Duke and Oklahoma State at the end of his recruitment. He is the second offensive lineman in Indiana's class, joining Carter Smith of Ohio.
