  1. DENTON, Texas – North Texas senior kicker Ethan Mooney has been named one of 20 semifinalists for the Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award, given annually by the Orange Bowl. A native of Fort Worth, Mooney is North Texas’ all-time leader in career extra points and ranks second all-time in points kicking with 310. He has connected on 49-of-63 field goal attempts in his career good for 77.8 percent, the second-best mark in the UNT record book. Mooney, a preseason All-Conference USA honoree, currently ranks ninth in FBS with 15 made field goals this season. He ranks 12th in FBS with a 93.8 percent rate on field goals this season and also with 42 made PAT’s. Semifinalists will be voted on by a panel of more than 100 FBS head coaches, SIDs, media members, former Groza finalists, and current NFL kickers to select the three finalists. These finalists will be announced on November 29th and honored at the 31st annual Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award Banquet on December 5th in Palm Beach County. The same panel then selects the winner, who will be announced live on ESPN during the Home Depot College Football Awards on Thursday, December 8th. The Award is named for National Football League Hall of Fame kicker Lou “The Toe” Groza, who played 21 seasons with the Cleveland Browns. Groza won four NFL championships with Cleveland and was named NFL Player of the Year in 1954. Although an All-Pro offensive lineman as well, Groza ushered in the notion that there should be a place on an NFL roster for a kicker. Since the first Lou Groza Award was handed out in 1992, 28 finalists, including 16 winners, have gone on to appear in the NFL, earning 13 trips to the Pro Bowl and taking home 7 Super Bowls. That list includes 2022 NFL kickers Rodrigo Blankenship, Randy Bullock, Daniel Carlson Mason Crosby, Jake Elliott, Ka’imi Fairbairn, Graham Gano, Matt Gay, Zane Gonzalez, Dustin Hopkins, Younghoe Koo, and Cairo Santos.
