Captain, My Captain - Hobart Announces 2017 Captains

The Captains are (all rising):

SR LB Almamy Conde - Conde led the Statesmen defense with 96 total, including 46 solo, stops in 2016. He started all 11 games after starting five as a SO. Conde earned 2nd team All-League honors for finishing fifth in the LL overall in tackles.
SR DL Zack Robak - Robak overcame injuries early in his career to start all 11 games in 2016 and produce 47 total tackles, including six TFL and three sacks. Robak has tallied 91 total tackles, 10.5 TFL and 4.5 sacks for his career.
SR QB Shane Sweeney - Sweeney rewrote many Statesmen passing records, throwing for nearly 3,500 yards and 36 passing TDs last season. Sweeney earned LL OPOTY, 1st team All-League, 1st team All-ECAC and D3football.com All-American Honorable Mention, among other honors.
SR TE Zach Withers - Withers is an excellent blocker and receiver, scoring two TDs in the NCAA playoffs against Mount Union. He has 42 receptions in the 31 games he's appeared in for the Statesmen, gaining 484 yards and scoring six TDs.
