Kaiden is an explosive force flying downhill with purpose and ferocity. A relentless competitor and all-around athlete, Kaiden isn’t just active, he’s wired for action. From football to basketball to volleyball and track, he’s in constant motion, building a dynamic edge that makes him nearly impossible to contain. Quick off the snap, violently disruptive, and nearly immovable, he’s a true enforcer at linebacker, ferocious at the point of attack, and impossible to block clean.

Last season, Kaiden racked up 62 tackles, 3 forced fumbles, 1 fumble recovery, 3 sacks, and 6 tackles for loss stats that paint a picture, but still don’t fully capture the chaos he brings to an offense. He’s not just productive; he’s fierce. And he’s only getting better, faster, stronger, and finally getting recognized as “the” linebacker with the kind of build and burst that puts offenses on alert.

He doesn’t just react, he anticipates. His ability to dissect body language pre-snap is surgical, using subtle cues to attack plays before they even develop. And when the pads pop, Kaiden sets the tone. He’s a walking ignition switch charged up, vocal, and leading with a fierce presence that rallies his squad and lights up the stands. He brings an energy that fuels the whole team, and with the crowd roaring behind him, he feeds off it like fire to gasoline.

But what drives Kaiden runs deeper than noise and adrenaline. Everything he does is driven by the memory of his brother and teammate, Nate (#58). That loss 'sparked d a deeper fire. Every hit, every snap, every sprint is for him. Kaiden plays with a different level of focus now, stronger, faster, and pushing toward greatness with meaning behind every step.

Now signed with Ottawa University, Kaiden is determined to make his impact felt at the next level but his dream burns even brighter. D1 isn’t a wish but a mission. He knows what it’ll take: blood, sweat, and pushing past the pain when no one’s watching. And he’s already shown he’ll put in the work. Extra reps. Unshakable grit. Heart that never quits. Every single snap, he’s hunting for a win.

His standout moment came in a do-or-die overtime game versus Grant and a blocked field goal that sealed the win and proved once again that when the lights shine brightest, Kaiden rises. Fueled by memory, molded by adversity, and moved by faith in the process, he’s a game-changer with a relentless engine. The story’s already special. And it’s just getting started.

Kaiden Pierite is a dynamic playmaker with explosive quickness and a fearless motor. His instincts and ability to read offensive lines give him an edge pre-snap, while his raw strength and fast-twitch reactions allow him to finish plays with authority. His versatility as a multi-sport athlete sharpens his agility and lateral movement, giving him standout potential in coverage or pursuit. The emotion and purpose he brings to every play fuel his consistency and presence on the field.

Kaiden has the skillset and drive to be an immediate impact player at the collegiate level. His ability to bring vocal leadership, deliver clean but devastating hits, and stay disciplined through adversity makes him valuable in high-pressure situations. As he continues to build his frame and refine his positional IQ, he has the potential to level up into a game-altering force. His work ethic, character, and ceiling suggest he won’t just play in college but thrive. Expect big moments, big stops, and a name that won’t fade anytime soon. Stay tuned.
