WEST PALM BEACH, Fla.-Friday, BYU football redshirt senior kicker Will Ferrin was named to the Groza Award Watch List which is annually bestowed upon the top placekicker in FBS college football.

Ferrin made 24-27 (just under 89 percent) of his field goals last season for the Cougars and all 41 of his extra point attempts.

Ferrin, a native of Kaysville, Utah and a former Davis High School star, has also starred at Boise State during his collegiate career.
