RETURNING STANDOUT
The keys to Princeton’s offense now belong to 2027 ATH/QB Jake Belcher, who is expected to take over as the Tigers’ starting quarterback while sliding back to safety on the defensive side of the ball. After contributing in a variety of ways during Princeton’s state championship season, Belcher enters his senior year with the opportunity to become one of Class AAA’s top playmakers. His athleticism, football IQ, and versatility give Princeton a dynamic player on both sides of the ball, and don’t be surprised if he puts together a breakout campaign while leading another deep playoff run for the Tigers.
