Gonzalez Earns USA Today and Sports Illustrated All-America Recognition

TEMPE, Ariz. – Arizona State senior place-kicker Zane Gonzalez picked up two more All-America First Team honors as he was named to both the Sports Illustrated and USA Today All-America teams announced Thursday afternoon.

Gonzalez, a senior from Deer Park, Texas, claimed his second and third first team All-America honors after receiving first team recognition by Sporting News yesterday.

Gonzalez made an FBS-leading 14 field goals from at least 40 yards out in the 2016 season, and was a remarkable 7-for-9 on attempts from 50 yards or more. That mark, the second-most ever from long distance in an FBS season, includes the longest FG of the year, a 59 yarder that was also the kick to give him the all-time record for career points by a kicker.
