The 6-foot-2, 250-pound Adomitis started every game between 2017-21, serving as Pitts short and long snapper.

A team captain at Pitt, he made his impact on the field.

And he made, arguably, an even greater effort off the field.

A 2021 AFCA Good Works Team member, named for his commitment to community service, Adomitss Cals Kids initiative raised over $122,000 for the UPMC Childrens Hospital of Pittsburgh and it led to the shearing of his long locks.

Adomitis earned All-American honors on the way to an ACC championship and NFL dreams along with earning the Mannelly Award, which is given to the most outstanding long snapper in college football.

After four years at Pittsburgh Central Catholic and five years at Pitt, staying in hometown Pittsburgh for nearly a quarter century, Cal laid a foundation on not just being a good football player, an excellent long-snapper, but a good human being.

He may be playing in Cincinnati now, but his impact in Pittsburgh will not soon be forgotten.

Adomitis is entering his fourth season as the starting long snapper for the Bengals.
