Clemson's last straight on place kicker


Jul 18, 2020, 9:19 AM

Frank Pearce pic below made me think- who was our last straight ahead kicker at Clemson. I went to games starting w Siegler who soccer style. Maybe WIllie Jordan who kicked in addition qb. Does anyone recall for sure?

Between Pearce & Seigler

There was at least one other straight on kicker. I think his name is Don Barfield. Maybe someone more in the know can confirm.

Rusty Seyle shared kicking duties with Chris Gardocki during my senior year at Clemson, which was the 1988 season. He was a straight-on kicker, and punted at times during college as well.

How about Lon Armstrong? He was our high school coach at Mid Carolina and at one time held the consecutive made PATs record. I think Pauling broke it.

Other than Rusty Seyle in the late 1980’s, you go back to 1975 Willie Jordan and Tim Lindler. In 1974, Bob Burgess was a good Straight On Kicker. I think he was the starter in 1973 as well.
