Mauro also caught seven passes for 155 yards and a TD as a tight end and for his efforts was selected District 5-5A first team and earned All-State honors from the AP.
Mauro flew mostly under the radar in his first three years at Stanford, despite appearing as a reserve in 22 games during his redshirt freshman and sophomore seasons. That all changed in 2012, when he racked up 6 sacks, 19 tackles and a pair of fumble recoveries as one of Stanford’s first defensive linemen off the bench.
In 2013, Mauro would start 11 games, record 51 tackles (more than double the total of any other true defensive lineman on the team), force a pair of fumbles, had four sacks and collect his 1st career interception. In the process, Josh Mauro didn’t just provide Stanford with the snaps it sorely needed at the position; he also made a name for himself, earning All-Pac-12 honorable mention and an invitation to the East-West Shrine Game.
