Senior led American Athletic Conference in punting in 2014
Ciabatti joins USF sophomore running back Marlon Mack (Sarasota) and senior tight end Sean Price (Citra), earlier named to the Maxwell Award and Mackey Award Watch Lists respectively, among three Bulls represented on preseason national award watch lists. Ciabatti is one of two American Athletic Conference punters to make the preseason list of 25 players on the Ray Guy Award Watch List.
Ciabatti returns for his senior campaign after a stellar season in 2014 in which he led the American Athletic Conference in punting and finished 10th nationally averaging 44.
