Personal Statement

Kicking World D1 Hot Prospect, Tied Kicking World camp record with 65 yard FG

I am an extremely driven & coachable kicker / punter / athlete combo player that also focuses on academics; #3 in my class of over 300. I plan to study engineering and make an impact on my college team & community. I currently have a business making custom duck calls which forces me to be an effective time manager as well.
