2026 Princeton LB Landon Crane Landon Crane 6'2" | 210 lbs | LB Princeton | 2026 State WV had an excellent senior season in his lone year with the Tigers, helping lead them to their first state championship in school history. Crane saved his best for last in his final high school season, which has resulted in D1 opportunities.

has proven to be a valuable addition to Princeton’s defense. After transferring in, he quickly settled into the Tigers’ system and brought the kind of size, mobility, and instinct that coaches look for at linebacker. His senior campaign has shown why his stock climbed over the summer, and his growth throughout the fall suggests there’s still more room for him to rise. Crane’s presence has also helped stabilize the middle of Princeton’s defense at a time when reliability matters most. He’s formed a strong tandem with

was a stock riser in the rankings this summer, and look for him to repeat that honor after this season. He was a great addition to the program at a position where they needed more bodies. Crane should have a big year for the Tigers and become a great defensive duo with

Here’s what we recently said about Crane in our 2026 Rankings Stock Risers article:
“ Landon Crane Landon Crane 6'2" | 210 lbs | LB Princeton | 2026 State WV will be suiting up for the Princeton Tigers this fall after coming over from Bluefield and should have a very strong senior year for them. He’s someone we had too low in our last update and still has the potential to climb higher once we see his senior film. Crane has a great frame for a college LB prospect and quality athleticism to utilize. He should have a standout year for the Tigers this fall and be a great addition to their program.”
