Four Marin Catholic football players slated to sign NLIs

Mario Crocitto, Ricky Kampmann, Greer Arthur, and Peter Macaulay are set to sign letters of intent to play college football on Thursday afternoon.

The signings bring the total for last season’s State Division 3-A champs to six with potential a couple more on the way.

Crocitto, the MCAL lineman of the year, is heading to Tufts University. Kampmann, one of MC’s top linemen, is headed to Denison University.

Peter Macaulay is set to join teammate Zach Taylor at Bowdoin College next season.

Finally, receiver Greer Arthur will join a contingent of former MC players at UC Davis. The Aggies currently feature four former Wildcats on the roster in quarterback Michael Ingrassia, running back Matteo Perez, defensive lineman Trent Carrade, plus defensive back Gaven Cooke.
