Georgia place-kicker Rodrigo Blankenship has earned an NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship to add to his career accolades.
With Blankenship’s selection, Georgia football has now had 14 NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship recipients. Each of the players who received this year’s NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship will be awarded a $10,000 postgraduate scholarship. Blankenship had already earned a National Football Foundation (NFF) Scholar-Athlete Award in December 2019 and the $18,000 postgraduate scholarship that comes with it.
Blankenship is one of 11 football players at all different levels of the NCAA on the 21-man NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship list. He is one of only two student-athletes from the Southeastern Conference on the men’s 2019-20 list.
