Cornell’s do-it-all kicker with elite leg strength and proven big-game upside
Caden Lesiewicz enters Cornell as a versatile kicker/punter whose standout trait is leg strength: in 2024 he averaged 38.9 yards on 16 punts for Cornell, earned Ivy Rookie of the Week after a 52.4-yard explosion against Brown, and showed he can flip field position with a long of 68 yards.[2][5][10] He also brings a rare multi-sport, multi-role background and a strong academic profile from high school, plus a comeback note after missing time in 2023 with a torn MCL, which adds some injury context but also resilience.[6][15]
