Spring 2021: Only Badger to start all ten games for UW…recorded an assist in Wisconsin’s 3-2 victory over No. 14 Michigan (4/4)…attempted ten shots with three on goal…led the team in minutes played with 920 total
2018 & 2019: Played for Duquesne University ... started in every match and never left the field as a true freshman ... scored three career goals ... recorded one assist
Prep: Played for Sebastian Finsterwalder Gymnasium…his club team in Germany was Spvgg Unterhaching
Trask on Kapplesberger: "Moritz brings valuable experience and quality as he joins us here at Wisconsin. Having played two years of Division I soccer (Duquense) Moritz understands the collegiate game and it has been a pleasure getting to know him through the recruiting process. Moritz brings a cultured left foot and physical abilities needed to be a top-level center back in the Big Ten. When his name appeared on the transfer portal we jumped at an opportunity to bring this natural leader into the 2020 Badger soccer team. Moritz will provide another experienced defender in our back line this coming fall."
Tiemeyer on Kapplesberger: "I am excited to have Moritz join Badger soccer. He is a player I saw a few years ago while recruiting in Germany. He most recently excelled as a center back at Duquesne University following an exceptional career at Unterhaching in the German Youth Bundesliga. Very strong in the tackle and in the air, able to communicate to teammates on the field and strong passing ability sum up Moritz's game."
