Valdosta State punter/placekicker Daniel Andersen (SR, 6-0, 182, Meansville, GA).

Andersen collects his third career accolade dating back to 2010.  The senior excelled at both placekicker and punter for the Blazers in their 24-21 road win over North Alabama.  The Meansville, GA native kicked six punts for 249 yards (41.5 average) led by a 56-yarder and three punts downed inside the Lions’ 20-yard line.  Andersen did not stop there, nailing a 51-yard field goal which extended VSU’s lead to 10-0 in the first quarter.  The field goal was the longest in the GSC this season.
