High School:
Andrew Donnal attends Anthony Wayne High School. In 2008, the Generals went 5-5 in the Northern Lakes League. The pinnacle moment of the season was an astounding 5 overtime game against the Clay Eagles that the Generals ended up winning.
As a junior Donnal played tackle on offense and defense. It was his second year starting at offensive tackle and his play earned him First Team All-Conference honors. I couldn't find any meaningful statistics on Donnal's play, but found that he ran a 4.91 forty at the Ohio State junior camp this summer. That is pretty quick for a 6'7" 280 pound lineman. In his highlight video you can see his quickness and strength on both sides of the ball. On offense he was an absolute force as a run blocker. He consistently pushed back the defender 5 yards off the line of scrimmage leaving the running back big wholes. On defense he often was in the backfield knocking down passes or getting the sack. He even blocked a couple of kicks.
Donnal has also been a standout as a center in basketball and in the shot put and discus on the track team.
