Before Louisville: Played one season at Campbellsville University ... holds the school record for punting average in a game ... booted a career-long 62-yard punt ... played quarterback and punter at Covington Catholic High School ... broke school records in passing yards in a game (389 yards) and touchdowns in a season (28) ... tied the school record with six touchdown passes in a game ... two-time second team All-State punter during his junior and senior seasons ... selected Northern Kentucky first team punter of the year ... named the punter for the Crosstown showdown All-Star punter ... broke school record with a 41.3 average during his senior season ... named the team's Most Valuable Back.
