Nathan Zappitelli brings blue-collar trench toughness to Cincinnati
A consensus three-star lineman and 2025 Division IV Ohio Offensive Player of the Year, Nathan Zappitelli arrives at Cincinnati as a high-floor interior OL with real pedigree: a four-year starter, first-team all-state honoree, and the No. 51 player in Ohio by On3. The buzz is clear—he plays smash-mouth football, has the versatility to kick inside, and adds the kind of toughness and developmental upside coaches love. If your team wants a physical, reliable blocker with local-rooted competitiveness, he’s a strong fit.
