Capital unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They lost 28-7 to the Princeton Tigers on Friday. The Cougars were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 22-0.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Princeton to victory, but perhaps none more so than Brad Mossor, who picked up 166 receiving yards and one score, and also rushed for 36 yards and one touchdown. That's the most receiving yards Mossor has posted since back in October of 2024. Another passer making a difference was Chance Barker, who threw for 221 yards and one TD.
