Albany at Princeton

PRINCETON, N.J. (Interstat) — Albany will visit Princeton on Saturday for an NCAA Football Championship Division game at Powers Field at Princeton Stadium. The Great Danes enter with a 2-2 record, while the Tigers are 0-1. The forecast at game time calls for 69 degrees.

Albany will look to build on a mixed start to its season. The Great Danes most recently fell 28-20 to Monmouth. In that game, Kai Colon completed 10 of 19 passes for 139 yards with one touchdown and punted once for 37 yards. Aidan Semo completed 4 of 6 passes for 34 yards and ran six times for 14 yards. Rahshan La Mons ran 15 times for 86 yards and a touchdown.

Colon is a player to watch for Albany. His recent production has included work through the air and in the punting game, giving the Great Danes another option in an offense searching for consistency. Albany’s other results this season include a 35-13 win at Long Island, a 21-17 loss at Buffalo and a 28-14 home win over New Hampshire.

Princeton will seek its first win of the season after a 21-14 loss at Bryant in its last game. Wyatt Becker completed 15 of 29 passes for 202 yards and one touchdown and ran four times for 26 yards. Ethan Clark ran 18 times for 69 yards and caught one pass for 13 yards and a touchdown. Kai Honda ran eight times for 25 yards.

Becker is a player to watch for Princeton. He guided the Tigers’ passing attack in the most recent outing and also contributed on the ground. The Tigers will rely on Becker and a rushing group that includes Clark and Honda as they play at home for the first time this season.

Albany’s schedule after Saturday includes a home game against Delaware State, road games at Stony Brook and Rhode Island, a home matchup with Campbell, a trip to Bryant, a home game against Maine and a road contest at North Carolina A&T.
