Kohl's Comments

Van Zelst had strong showings at both the Midwest Winter Showcase as well as the 2020 UC-Challenge. He is one of the best field goal kickers in his class and he displayed excellent command of his body and control on his field goal reps. He charted well and competed well in the field goal portion of camp. His big ball on kickoffs at camp was 71 yards with 3.74 seconds of hang time. Van Zelst attended the 2019 Spring Showcase Camp. His field goals are some of the more pure hits in the 2021 class. He made 10 out of 12 points and also showed that he has the leg strength with a big kick off that went 70 yards with 3.63 seconds of hang time. He has grown into one of the top kicking prospects in his class and we expect big things from him over the next couple off years.
