Fred Mitchell Award

The Fred Mitchell Outstanding Place Kicker Award is proud to announce the Top 10 vote recipients of place-kickers for their excellence on the football field for the 2019 season and for continued community service during their collegiate careers.
 
Butler's Drew Bevelhimer made the cut after hitting 83 percent of his field goal attempts in 2019. The senior from Indianapolis made 10 of his 12 attempts, including a career-long 52 yard field goal this season. Bevelhimer was perfect inside 40 yards and provided BU with a game-winning kick vs. Valparaiso.
 
The annual Fred Mitchell Outstanding Place-Kicker Award (also known as the Fred Mitchell Award) is provided to the nation's top collegiate place-kicker among more than 750 FCS, Division II, III, NAIA and NJCAA football teams.
 
The recipient of the Fred Mitchell Award will be announced in mid-December.  Details are provided at www.fredmitchellaward.com.  The season's watch lists and updates may also be found on Twitter at @kickeruww, and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/fredmitchellaward/.
