Niegsch laid down a strong foundation for the future with a productive freshman season on which to build. He stood out on both sides of the ball for Gilbert against pre-varsity competition in 2025. When watching his highlight video on offense, we witness a running back that gets downhill in a hurry. Sharp cuts, patience in allowing blocks to set up, burst and vision contribute to success as a ball carrier. His defensive highlight video illustrates how he delivers as a linebacker in the Tiger scheme. Operating from the middle of the second level, Niegsch reads what’s headed his way before the snap and flies to the football once the play is underway. He’s physical with solid tackling form.
