Chris Sailer Kicking made a recent stop in Chicago, IL to work with many of the region’s top specialists. The weather was outstanding and the results reflected the ideal conditions. The camp featured a great mixture of new young talent and experienced college prospects. Take a look at the results.
Camp Champion:
Jacob LaFree (2015, IN) – Jacob is an extremely talented kicker. He has one of the strongest legs in the nation and continues to prove that he is a D1 prospect. On this day he took home the punting championship, but he also competed very well on field goals and kickoffs. He won the head to head finals round by nailing back to back 52 yard field goals off the ground. Look for Jacob to catch the eyes of many D1 coaches this spring and summer.
Top Overall Prospect:
Mason Weissenhofer (2015, IL) – Mason dominated all day long. He is a great athlete with a big time leg. He kicks with great technique and consistency. On this day he won both the field goal and kickoff competitions. Mason is an outstanding D1 kicking prospect.
Field Goal Champion:
Phil Oravecz (2015, IL) – Phil did a great job on field goals. He stepped up when it counted the most and won the field goal charting competition. Phil already kicks off the ground and shows excellent college potential. Keep a close eye on him this coming year.
Class of 2015 Standouts: Blake Hately, Austin Baker, Joe McCollum, Michael Kurzydlowski, Nate Brown, Stephen Dennis, Thomas Tintera.
Class of 2016 Top Prospects:
Nate Needham – Nate is developing into a great prospect. He is a good looking athlete with a very strong leg. His field goals and kickoffs are near the top of his class and he continue to improve and a fast rate. He also shows nice punting potential. Nate could be a top player in his class.
Kaden Keon – Kaden is a excellent overall prospect. He has a big leg and kicks with nice consistency. He shows the tools to be a top prospect in his class. Field goals, kickoffs and punts all show strong potential. I expect Kaden to have a bright future.
Other 2016 Standouts: Jared Smolar, Riley Heavey, Ryley Guay, Henry Tarbox, Connor Assallay.
Top Class of 2017 Prospect: Matt Hellen
Top Class of 2018 Prospect: Grant Gonya
