He charted well multiple times and produced his best field goal chart at the Southern by scoring 13 points. His kickoffs were the best at the Western, but he flashed a quick leg at all the events. His punt technique was sound, and he charted with confidence at the camps as well. He is a well-rounded combo prospect who has above average leg speed and is driven to be the best he can be.

    Athlete Bio

    My goal is to lead by example, being the best in my role to motivate my teammates to be the best in their roles. I am extremely mentally tough and hard-working and have hopes of taking my skills to the next level. I have spent hundred of hours to perfect my craft while being personally mentored by NFL professionals Jeff Budzien (award-winning kicker out of Northwestern) and Joe Gardener (Kohls). I don’t expect anything to be handed to me and like to earn the right to compete, thriving in situations of pressure to perform when it counts. Any opportunity I will make the best of and prove why I belong with the best.
