Boise State finds its new scholarship kicker, and he has a familiar last name

Boise State had been looking to add a scholarship kicker to its 2019 recruiting class, and the Broncos find him Saturday night.

Gavin Wale, a 6-foot-2, 175-pound kicker/punter from Coronado High in Henderson, Nev., verbally committed to Boise State, where his cousin, Sean, played for the Broncos as a punter from 2012-16. The Broncos graduated kicker Haden Hoggarth, who was 12-of-20 on field goals last season.
