A Kicker Finds His Place

Posted Aug 11, 2009
For a kicker, technique and repetition are of the utmost importance. Casey Barth knows that. Fifteen times, he jogged out to attempt a field goal last season. Ten times, he put the ball through the uprights. Barth was perfect on 33 extra-point attempts.
