Syracuse Football: Sterling Hofrichter on verge of football immortality

A Syracuse football player has never won the Ray Guy Award, but that could change in 2019.

On Monday Sterling Hofrichter was named a semi-finalist for the annual award that is handed out to the nation’s best collegiate punter.

He was 1 of 10 semifinalists that were announced from a field of 78 nominated candidates. The selection process considered contributions to the team, overall statistics (net punting average, punts inside an opponent’s 20-yard line, etc).

Sterling’s contributions to the team can’t be understated, he’s been a huge factor for the Orange over the last two years.
