2012 Captains Chosen

Joe Scibilia
Jordan Hogan
Derek DeCandia


The College at Brockport Football team has announced its’ three captains for the upcoming 2012 season. Linebacker Derek DeCandia (Beacon, NY/Beacon), wide receiver Jordan Hogan (Lockport, NY/Newfane) and quarterback Joe Scibilia (North Tonawanda, NY/Starpoint) were elected by their fellow teammates. All three captains are seniors.

Scibilia led a potent offense for the Golden Eagles last year, ranking first in the New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) with 432.8 total yards per game. Scibilia averaged a league-high 250.9 passing yards per game while completing 62.1 percent of his passes, tied for second in the conference. 

Hogan helped contribute to the high-powered offense after catching 47 passes for 685 yards, both team highs. The 2012 preseason All-American ranked third in the NJAC in both receptions per game and receiving yards per game last year. 

DeCandia returns for a fifth season after missing a majority of the 2011 season due to an injury. DeCandia started all 10 games in both the 2010 and 2009 season and has registered 155 tackles over his career. The senior led Brockport with 3.5 sacks and 13 tackles for a loss during the 2010 season.

Brockport opens up their regular season on Sept. 1 on the road against Lycoming College. The team’s home opener is set for Sept. 8 against Buffalo State.
