Arizona long snapper Seth MacKellar earns scholarship

If you don’t who know Seth MacKellar is, that just means he’s doing his job.

The sophomore was the snapper for nearly every Arizona Wildcats field goal, punt and extra point of the 2019 season, a role that only gets noticed when something goes terribly wrong.

It never did.

“We never heard about him, we never heard his name, which is the ultimate compliment,” head coach Kevin Sumlin said.

And now MacKellar has the ultimate reward: a full scholarship. Sumlin announced it to the team via Zoom call on Tuesday.
