Canadian Clubber

6-5 241-pound DE Xavier Thibault has committed to the Lions.

Thibault is from Quebec City, Canada, but has been at the Williston Northampton School where he made the All-NEPSAC 1st team.

Before WNS, he played at his hometown Seminaire Saint Francois School.

According to my Lion Feeders database, Thibault will be only the third Williston Northampton grad to come to Columbia Football and the first since Peter Downs '73.

He is the first Seminaire Saint Francois grad to come to CU Football.
