The 2026 winner of the prestigious Pioneer Award: CB Michael Mecca
Stepping up in every way, he made plays as on defense and special teams. A born winner, Mikey is a part of the winningest class in Utica Football history and the first Utica Lacrosse team to win a postseason game

Utica QB Tyler Szalkowski (@SzalkowskiTyler) had a fantastic 2025 season for the Pioneers, earning Empire 8 Offensive Player of the Year honors along with being named a Gagliardi Trophy semifinalist.
Listed at 6'3, 225 lbs, the Rochester, New York native completed 285 of 421 passes (68%) for 33 TDs and 7 INTs.
Szalkowski has the size and an NFL-caliber arm and should be considered one of the top D3 prospects in the 2027 NFL Draft.
