2026 NYCHSFL POTW #4
Abdiel Capellan (Jr.); DB – Mount St. Michael Academy Mountaineers Proving an immediate spark for the Mountaineers in their 36-0 win over Cardinal Spellman this past Friday night… It was the 5’8, 145-pound defensive back out of the Bronx [Capellan] picking off a pass on the opposing 20-yard line on just the second snap from scrimmage to set the Mount up with ideal starting field position for their initial drive…. The first INT in the career of the 11th grader; his turnover producing heroism was laid the tracks for Week #3 POTW selection, Victor Declet (68 yards and 1 TD on nine handoffs) to sprint in from 11-yards away shortly after to put MSMA in front, 7-0, less than 2:00 into the opening quarter! Adding three cumulative stops to fall just one short of typing his all-time best (week #2 versus Xavierian); the now first-time Player of the Week honoree
