Colgate freshman DL Michael Milenkovski brings size, polish, and blue-collar pedigree
Michael Milenkovski enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot-3, 270-pound freshman defensive lineman for Colgate, and the early read is a classic interior disruptor with real developmental upside. He arrives from Columbus Academy with a strong prep résumé, including 65 tackles, 17 tackles for loss, nine sacks, a safety, and a blocked PAT, plus multiple academic all-league honors—so the “motor + discipline” combo is very real. At this stage, he looks like a fit for a team that values toughness, academic commitment, and long-term growth more than instant flash.
