We are 5 games into 2019 College Football season, and a couple of Wolfpack players are on pace to either break an NC State single-season record, or rank in the Top-10.
Redshirt Sophomore Punter Trent Gill was a walk-on who received a scholarship before the start of the season, beating out Mackenzie Morgan for the job. Gill had big shoes to fill, stepping in after A.J. Cole who was a 4-year starter, and the starting punter for the Oakland Raiders currently. The shoes fit quite well through 5 games, averaging 47.2 yards per punt, which is a whole yard greater than the single-season record held by Johnny Evans.
