Raiders Prepare To Defend Patriot League Championship

Hamilton, NY — Colgate University head football coach Dick Biddle will greet his defending co-Patriot League champions on Tuesday, August 12, when his squad reports for preseason camp.

The entire squad will report on Tuesday at 9 a.m. before going through physicals.  The Raiders will have a photo session at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, and will take to the field that afternoon for the first time at 2:30 p.m.

The Raiders return 36 letterwinners from last year’s 9-3 team and six players who were named all-Patriot League last season.  Leading the way is senior linebacker Tem Lukabu, who was named the preseason Defensive Player of the Year in the Patriot League.

Colgate will be looking for its eighth straight winning season.  The Raiders currently are the only football team in the Patriot League to post seven straight winning seasons.
