How this page is made: Rosters: official Cal Poly Humboldt rosters, 2024–25 and 2025–26, read from the athletic department's own site · Stats: 2024–25, the newest season with recorded stats for Cal Poly Humboldt; 2025–26 stats are not on file. · New this season: players not listed on the 2024–25 roster; a newcomer who is not a freshman counts as a transfer addition · Openings: Depth Chart's roster projection from listed class years; confidence stated per year · Sample: among players who made a college roster — the data cannot see who didn't. Among players who made a college roster. Model judgments describe positions and cohorts, never a named player's future. Refreshed automatically when the rosters change.
