Scout.com lists Kalepo, who is the nephew of former UW All-American Danny Shelton, at 6-5 and 290 pounds.
The 4-star lineman is ranked the 3rd best recruit in the state of Washington for 2019 by Scout.com. The top recruit on that list, quarterback Dylan Morris out of Graham-Kapowsin High School, committed to Washington in July.
