Personal comments from Nick
-- I have a very strong leg and am a consistent kicker. My longest field goal made was 62 yards during practice. My longest kickoff was 84 yards with a 5.1 hang time and my best punt was a 68 yarder with a 5.7 hang time and rolled for a net of 80 yds with no return (during a game)
I have accepted a verbal committment to the University of Maryland and look forward to kicking in college.
