2015 HighlightsPersonal Statement
Committed to play football at UC Davis.
I am a 6'1", 195 pound kicker/punter in the 2016 graduating class at Campolindo HS in Moraga CA, a distinguished academic high school ranked among the top schools in California. Currently (August 2015) I am ranked as a top Class of 2016 combo kicker/punter in the three major national rankings:
Chris Sailer Kicking: 5 star rated, #19 kicker, and #25 punter. Selected for the Top 12/Event Elite invitational camp which includes the top kickers and punters in the country, and won the field goal competition.
Kohl's Kicking: 5 star rated, #27 punter.
Kornblue Kicking Fab 50: #5 punter, #11 kicker
This past season I was the starting kicker/punter on my high school varsity team that won the California D3 State Championship. For the season I scored 103 points and was 85/92 on PAT's, and 6/10 on FG's (long of 43). I averaged 37 yards punting and allowed only 3 returns all season. On MaxPreps website I was the #17 high school kicking scorer in the country this season, and #6 in the class of 2016.
My goals for college are to get a great education and play for a team where I will have the chance to help the team win. I appreciate your interest and will be working hard to become one of the best high school kickers in the US.
