Princeton’s speed merchant with track-star juice
In the 2000 season, Patrick Schottel stood out as a multi-sport burner for Princeton, with reporting noting he was part of the Tigers’ 4x100 relay group and could “smoke” defenders on the sideline; he also hauled in a 49-yard touchdown vs. Columbia, showing real vertical-threat ability. His differentiators were speed, size for the position, and big-play flair — the kind of athlete who can stress a defense even when the stat sheet is quiet. If you want a receiver who brings explosiveness and track-level acceleration, he’s worth a look.
