to be one of only two sophomores on this list speaks to the outstanding year the red shirt freshman put in. With an average of 40.6 yards per (including 11 punts of 50 or more yards) ranked him among the top 50 players in the nation. Equally impressive was his whistle to whistle participation while on the field the All-MAC Freshman (Rivals.com) recorded the second-most tackles by a kicker/punter in a season(5).
The Ray Guy Award winner is determined by a national selection committee of FWAA sports writers, college coaches, sports information directors, and past Ray Guy Award winners. Among the statistics used to identify the winner are total yardage punted, number of times a punt is downed or kicked out of bounds inside the opponents 20-yard line, net average, average returned yardage, and percentage of punts not returned. The winner must display team leadership, self-discipline, and have a positive impact on the team’s success.
