BLACKSBURG - Virginia Tech punter Nick Veltsistas has been added to the watch list for the Ray Guy Award which goes to the nation's top FBS punter.
Veltsistas (6-2, 202) has punted 16 times through the first four games of the season for a total of 717 yards, averaging 44.8 yards per punt. The Fairfax, Virginia native has had three kicks of 50-plus yards and four have been downed inside the 20-yard line. His season-long is a 57-yard punt.
The Ray Guy Award winner is selected by a voting body of FBS sports information directors, national media and former Ray Guy Award winners. Punters are evaluated on their overall statistics and contribution to the team.
