Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician · Jun 7, 2018
Get to Know Your Orange Man: #91, K Andre Szmyt
Position: Kicker
Year: (Redshirt) Freshman
Height: 6’1”
Weight: 196
Hometown: Vernon Hills, Ill.
High School: Vernon Hills
2017 Stats: N/A, since he redshirted.
2018 projections: Could see the field this year as a back-up kicker. The Syracuse Orange have starters there in Sterling Hofrichter (placekicker) and Nolan Cooney (kickoffs). But if there are any issues with either, Szmyt is one of a couple options that could jump in.
How’d he get here? Though he didn’t have any scholarship offers, he did get some preferred walk-on looks, even committing to Louisville in that fashion before following SU director of player personnel Dave Boller over from the Cards.
