A-State’s Grace Among 10 Ray Guy Award Semifinalists

JONEBSORO, Ark. – Arkansas State sophomore punter Cody Grace was among 10 semifinalists announced Thursday by the Augusta Sports Council for the prestigious Ray Guy Award.

Grace and the other nine semifinalists were chosen from a field of 78 nominated candidates for the award that honors the nation’s top college punter. He is the fourth all-time Arkansas State player to be tabbed a candidate, but is now the first ever to be named a semifinalist. Luke Ferguson (2014 and 2015), Brett Shrable (2008) and Andy Shatley (2000) all previously represented A-State on the Ray Guy Award list of candidates.
