Personal Statement

My name is Austin Hosier.  I am a student first, then an athlete. My goal is to play football at the next level.  I pride myself on being a student of the game and a hard worker on and off the field. I train year round as a kicker with Coach Nick Gatto of 4th and 10 Kicking and Punting. Should I get the opportunity to play for you I will represent your university in the best way, both in academics as well as on the field.  

While it's been a long journey to reach the varsity level, its because I've been behind two awesome kickers who were in front of me. Mason Reid (North Texas), Joaquin Rodriguez (Texas Lutheran) both all district kickers and top kickers in the city of San Antonio the last three years. Watching their work ethic, and developing behind them has been instrumental to the success I've had so far at the sub-varsity levels. This year though, the path is clear, and I will be the man. 

I've been flying low under the radar with colleges and universities but don't think this is going to last. I have already received two D3 offers, and things are heating up as of late with numerous D2 schools beginning to reach out and show interest. Ranked 75# in the 2021 class by Kohl's Kicking, I expect nothing but great things this senior year. If you're looking for a kicker with a good GPA; hard work ethic; someone who loves the gym; loves to kick; competes in one of the toughest districts in Texas (26-6A); who's accurate and has ice in his veins, I'm your dude. Don't sleep on me, because if you do, you may regret it.
