  • Connor Ferguson ranked as No. 1 kicker in Georgia

    With the typical sideline chaos of a high school football game all around him, Benedictine's Connor Ferguson is always a picture of calm within the storm. His career-long 50-yard field goal against Burke County was the latest in a long line of big-time plays for Ferguson, who is ranked No. 1 in Georgia and No. 7 in the nation in the Kohl's National Kicker Rankings. He is 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts this season, with another blast from 48 yards in a season-opening loss to Rabun County, while converting all 11 of his PAT tries. He has forced touchbacks on 11 of his 17 kickoffs, while averaging 44 yards with his high-flying, booming punts. Ferguson has offers from Valdosta State, Arkansas State, and Murray State, but has the potential to be a Power-Five player. Pack the stands as Ferguson and the Cadets host Westminster at 7:30 p.m. Sept. 20 at Memorial Stadium.
