Summary

Biography

2019: Named First Team Preseason All-NEC (2020) … Handling all kicking duties for the Seahawks once again, the Lincolndale, NY native earned the first All-Conference honor of his three-year career in 2019 … Landed on the All-NEC First Team for his punting efforts …  The junior finished the year averaging 39.9 yards per punt, including a career-long 59-yard punt at FBS member FAU (9/21) … In 2019,  the two-time NEC Special Teams Player of the Week recorded 11 punts of 50 or more yards while placing 27 punts inside the opponents' 20-yard line … Finished the year 8-11 on field goals, including a career-long 49-yarder against Bryant (11/23), and a perfect 19-19 on PATs.

2018: Averaged 39.4 yards per punt, which tied for second in the NEC, a figure buoyed by a career-long 68-yard launch at Bryant (11/10), which was preceded the previous week by a 62-yard missile vs. Duquesne (11/3) ... His efforts allowed Wagner to finish third in the NEC in net punting average at 38.8 yards per clip ... Had 10 punts that traveled 50 yards or more, 18 punts downed inside the 20-yard line ... His hang time forced 10 fair catches on the year ... While recognized on the Preseason All-NEC team for his punting exploits, was also one of the league top placekickers a year ago where he converted on 10-of-13 field goal attempts (76.9 percent) ... Connected on 5-of-5 accuracy from 30-39 yards ... Also averaged 51.0 yards on 60 kickoffs per kickoff, eight of which went for eight touchbacks.
 
2017: Saw action in all 11 games … His high-arching punts allowed Wagner to finish No. 1 in the NEC with a net punting average of 36.1 yards … Ranked No. 3 individually in the NEC with a net punting average of 37.6 on 63 punts that covered 2,368 yards … Boomed a career-long 64-yarder at Columbia (9/16), one of four 50-yard plus boots on the season … 26 punts downed inside the 20 and 18 were fair caught … Capped his freshman season by being named NEC Special Teams Player of the Week (11/20) for his efforts in the 28-15 win at Sacred Heart (11/18) when he pinned the Pioneers inside their own 20-yard line on four occasions.
 
Before Wagner: Standout kicker and punter at Somers High School … Powerful leg that translates in all aspects of the kicking game … Regularly put the ball into the end zone on kickoffs while getting solid hang time on all kicks … Displayed a high leg swing with consistent follow through on field goals.
