After a long weekend of charting and competitions, Harrison Mevis was selected as a kicker for the game topping the camp with his field goal and kickoff performance combined.

Joshua Karty may have been the most epic of selections, after 5 of the top field goal kickers were put head-to-head in a field goal competition in front of 1,200 athletes and spectators. Karty kicked an astounding 67-yard field goal to solidify the spot. The Stanford commit is also known for kicking a 70-yard field goal at the Kohl's Underclassman Challenge.
