	Vindy.com - Terracina's cut makes Schorejs sole placekicker

		Terracina, who has only five games of indoor kicking experience with the Steubenville Stampede of the American Indoor Football League last season, was reassigned back to the af2 but is hoping eventually to be recalled by the Thunder.

	deseretnews.com \| Boot champ: Sakoda kicks it up a notch
		The Utes had lost reliable placekicker Dan Beardall and were looking to upgrade at the punting position where Louie Sakoda averaged just 37.1 yards per kick.
		Perhaps the greatest kicker in Ute history was Marv Bateman, who set records in both punting and placekicking for Utah in the late-1960s before taking his talents to the pro ranks.
		However, Sakoda turned out to not only be the team's best placekicker but the best punter, and he has already shown the ability to boot the ball a few yards longer than last year.

	Placekicker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Placekicker is the title of the player in American and Canadian football who is responsible for the kicking duties of field goals, extra points, and, in many cases, kickoffs.
		Placekickers and punters are frequently the lowest-paid starters on professional teams, although good placekickers sometimes earn over a million dollars per year in salary.
		Placekickers today are almost all "soccer-style" kickers, approaching the ball from several steps to the left or right of it and several steps behind.

		According to the report, although an official decision won't be announced for another day or two, Bryant might have sewn up that job Thursday when he kicked a 52-yard field goal to give the Bucs their first points in their 38-14 win over Houston.
		The Buccaneers' starting placekicker job appears to be slipping out of Bryant's hands due to the remarkable performances that NFL Europe alum Todd France has turned in during recent practices, the St. Petersburg Times reports.
		The Bucs have not yet announced how the placekicking chores will be split up for their exhibition opener against the Titans on Friday.

	Star-Herald - Chadron St. placekicker gives Eagles extra kick
		Ryan Mackey, whose career has been a bit erratic, was a bright spot as he booted three field goals, including two from 42 yards away, connected on four of five extra points and sent nearly all of his kickoffs deep into Fort Hays territory.
		Saturday was the first time a CSC placekicker has booted three field goals in a game since 2000, when Aaron Turner kicked that many during a 23-22 win over Nebraska-Kearney.
		However, when practice resumed in August, the coaches told him his days of catching passes were over, since he is the team's only placekicker and they couldn't afford to have him in the injured list.

		Points can be scored in a variety of ways, including carrying the ball over the goal line, throwing the ball to another player past the goal line or placekicking it through the goal posts.
