Experience Returns at Linebacker for Princeton University Football Team

A pair of seniors will lead the Princeton University football team’s linebacking corps, which will need help on the outside, according to goprincetontigers.com.

Garrit Leicht and co-captain Mike Zeuli had 133 combined tackles last season. Leicht returns as a middle linebacker, while Zeuli will plays his third position in his college career. He takes over the role of weak-side linebacker after playing safety and strong-side linebacker previously.

Leicht has great responsibility in the middle with no starters returning on the defensive line.

The most experience on the defensive line belongs to juniors Evan Kappatos and Ian McGeary, who has played for three years. Kappatos has one year of experience. Sophomore Ty Desiré starts after playing behind Caraun Reid, who is now with the Detroit Lions.
