I was surprised as well, but I guess there were other punters with better averages.

PUNTING (Minimum 0 Punts/Game, Games Played Pct. 0%)
# Player G No. Yds Lg I20 50+ TB Avg.
1 Takerian, Jack - ISU 1 1 56 56 1 1 0 56.00

10 Fellner, Adam - WIU 11 64 2588 70 17 9 1 40.44

I underlined 1st and 2nd team punters (list is sorted by average punt). According to MVFC stats (which does not include a minimum number of attempts for averages), Bohlken was tied for 1st in Field Goal and PAT kicking % . He also had the 2 games with the most total punting yards (not necessarily a good thing. Lastly and most importantly, Bohlken was 3rd in the conference in average yards per rush!

Altho the one average ahead of him is just inches more and not worth haggling over. The one stat that stood out to me was his 50+ yards kicks - 23! A third of his kicks 50+ yards. Wow. Scraping for bright spots this year, but Bohlken sure was one.

Yes that is a very impressive number. Surprisingly, Schutt had 7 more downed inside the 20 in 9 less attempts. I wonder if Bohlken's average is low relative to his number of 50+ yard punts due to some blocked or partially blocked punts?

Bryson Deming, Braydon Deming, and Cole Mueller were all named to the All-Newcomer Team!
