Cornell University Athletics

At Cornell: Piselli made the travel roster as a junior and will again provide leadership to the offense. A solid quarterback with excellent leadership qualities, he will continue to compete for playing time under center. A strong-armed quarterback who has a good understanding of the offense, he is trusted by his teammates and is a solid option off the bench. Piselli is enrolled in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.

At South Side: Piselli was a first-team all-league and all-county selection as a senior at South Side HS. He was selected to play in the Long Island Senior Bowl, was named to the Nassau County Golden 11 team and was a county scholar-athlete pick. Piselli was also a standout lacrosse player and helped lead his high school team to the 2004 state championship as a three-year letter winner. He captained both teams as a senior.

Personal: Thomas Andrew Piselli is the son of Robert and Mary Piselli and has an older sister and a younger brother. His sister, Elizabeth, played lacrosse at Stanford, while his father played football at Princeton.
