Justin Rohrwasser earned a pair of honors this week for his performance as a placekicker with the Marshall football team.
Rohrwasser, a 6-foot-3, 230-pound redshirt senior from Clifton Park and a Catholic Central High graduate, was named Conference USA Special Teams Player of the Year and earned a spot on the league’s first team. It was the first time since 2005 that a kicker earned the Special Teams honor.
Rohrwasser led the Thundering Herd in scoring with 84 points. He connected on 17 of 20 field goals, including a career-high kick of 53 yards. He was the team’s kickoff specialist as well and averaged 60.4 yards on 57 kicks with 29 touchbacks.
Marshall finished the regular season with an 8-5 record and will take on Central Florida in the Gasparilla Bowl on Monday in Tampa, Fla. The game is set for 2:30 p.m. and can be seen on ESPN.
