PAC Release

TRAFFORD, Pa. -- The Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC) unveiled its Players to Watch list for the upcoming 2026 football season, which included five from Allegheny College.

Highlighting the Gator quintet is fifth-year senior linebacker Coltin Colucci (Brewster, Ohio/Fairless). A two-time All-PAC Honorable Mention, Colucci has provided energy and tenacity at the heart of the Allegheny defense over the past two years. Since transferring from Division II Seton Hill University, he's amassed 169 tackles with eight sacks, two interceptions, and two forced fumbles.

Colucci is joined by his younger brother, junior quarterback Carson Colucci (Brewster, Ohio/Fairless). While battling through injuries in his first season with the Gators, he led the team with 893 passing yards with six touchdown passes and two more scores on the ground. Second-year wide receiver Remington Rossow (West Palm Beach, Fla./Forest Hill) is expected to have a breakout season as one of Colucci's top targets after hauling in three receptions for 26 yards in five games as a freshman.

The PAC also included seniors Drew Evans (Erie, Col./Erie) and Landon Wayne (Albion, Pa./Northwestern) on the list of players to watch in 2026. One of Allegheny's top edge rushers, Evans produced 22 tackles with five tackles for loss and three sacks last fall. Wayne made seven appearances at safety, and in the season-opener against Denison University, he returned an interception 82 yards for a touchdown.

The Gators will begin the 2026 campaign on the road on Saturday, September 5, with a non-conference contest at Anderson University in Anderson, Indiana.
