Old-school walk-on grit with special-teams value for Marist
In the 2014 season, Nick Pititto played in seven games for Marist, mostly on special teams and as a reserve defensive lineman, finishing with four assisted tackles and half a sack. The bigger story is his resilience: he’s been described in profile coverage as a senior walk-on who overcame adversity and stuck it out in a crowded program, which speaks to toughness, coachability, and buy-in. He projects as the kind of depth player and team-first presence coaches love—someone who may not headline the box score, but can help raise the floor in the locker room and on coverage units.
