Husker Walk-on Q-n-A: Chase Urbach

Chase Urbach is a senior walk-on from Grosse Pointe, Michigan, who grew up in New Jersey until he was 16. One of the rare out-of-state walk-ons in the Nebraska program, Urbach honed his skills in high school as a long snapper, and he has started every game on the Huskers' punt unit since the third game of last season, at Michigan. Urbach is currently on watch lists for the Mannelly Award (nation's top long snapper) and the Burlsworth Trophy (nation's most outstanding walk-on). A member of the Nebraska Scholar-Athlete Honor Roll, Urbach has already earned his undergraduate degree, in advertising and public relations.
