Matt DeFeo brings size and trench toughness to Marist’s defensive front
Matt DeFeo is listed on Marist’s 2026 roster as a junior defensive lineman at 6-foot-2, 275 pounds, with a background that includes Sacred Heart and Massachusetts prep football. His best calling card is straightforward: he looks built for the dirty work in the middle, where leverage, gap discipline, and power matter more than flash. The public profile data doesn’t show eye-popping stat production, so he reads more as a developing interior piece than a headline-grabber—worth caring about if your team wants a sturdy, physical DL who can eat space and fit a structured front.
