99. Owen Kicinski Owen Kicinski 5'9" | 195 lbs | ATH/RB St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute | 2027 State NY -St. Joseph’s Collegiate

Kicinski is a talented athlete hailing from upstate New York and attending SJCI. He is a player who fell a bit in the new update, but his grade stayed the same. He can be used all over the field, and mainly I like him as a RB/WR/LB or DB based on his 5’9″ 195-Pound frame. On the offensive side of the ball, he showcases good speed and has the ability to read a defense. His hesitation off the snap as a RB can slow plays down and let holes develop. He is a slippery prospect and is tough to tackle staying on his feet as a balanced runner with the ball in his hands. His footwork is also a plus trait of his as he is able to make sharp cuts and quick changes of direction. Kicinski is a talented player who should sneak onto boards this season.

One of the most versatile prospects in WNY is Kicinski. He will lead the Marauders backfield but can also be an exceptional WR and on defense, is an extraordinary shutdown CB. He has breakaway speed and a high football IQ. Much of St. Joe’s success this season will be relied on Owen.

Last up in today’s edition of the Recruiting Report, is Owen Kicinski Owen Kicinski 5'9" | 195 lbs | ATH/RB St. Joseph's Collegiate Institute | 2027 State NY . The talented ATH from SJCI, played most of the season as a DB for the Marauders, and was an exceptional athlete for the Monsignor Martin Squad. Kickinski recently visited Cornell for Junior Day, and sat down with us to offer his best advice throughout the recruiting process.

After a solid sophomore season as a shutdown CB, Kicinski emerged as St. Joe’s top RB in 2025 with blazing speed. He averaged over 5 yards per carry and 9 TDs. Owen was an All State Honorable Mention and a 1st Team All Catholic RB.

We saw Owen in Albany against Cardinal Hayes, where his presence was felt all over the field. Against Jamestown he dominated, accumulating two touchdowns, 223 yards on just ten carries, averaging over 23 yards a carry in a good win for the Marauders.

This game could be considered Kicinski breakout game but everybody in the WNY community knows how good of a football player he is. This just happens to be his biggest game to date. Owen started the game off with a 37 yard TD on St. Joe’s opening drive then had a long 50+ yard run in the second half. All in all, he had over 200 yards on the ground and was a pivotal part of the Marauders defense that held Jamestown to just 6 points.

Despite the loss, the announcer in Albany repeated two names for the Marauders over and over. The official stats are not out yet, but Kicinski made his presence known all afternoon.

Kicinski played a pivotal role in the St. Joe’s offense as their lead back with blazing speed. He also contributed as a Cornerback with several pass breakups to keep St. Joe’s in this game.

Standing at 5’9″ 185-Pounds, Kicinski displays a solid build for an ATH. He spent a majority of his snaps at DB, but his usage is unknown given his talents.

On tape, he displays good ball tracking and fluid hips. He has a good COD and displays the ability to read a defense and react fast to cuts by opposing WR’s. He can lineup on offense at WR given his talent, but I believe he is better as a DB specifically at Corner.

Kicinski is extremely versatile and provides a range of traits for his SJCI roster. He should make impacts in every game this season, making him a name to watch.

Quite possibly the fastest player on the St. Joe’s roster, Kicinski is entering his junior year with breakout expectations. As a sophomore, he spent the majority of his playing time as a CB and he did well shutting down opposing WRs. But, he is also an exceptional weapon on offense whether it is at RB or WR. How he will be used is yet to be seen but this is a player to watch.
