Tulsa's special teams entered preseason camp with holes to fill at the place-kicking and punting positions, but returning veterans are back in other critical areas.
Adam Higuera (6-1, 224) returns for his fourth year as Tulsa's deep snapper. Higuera has been steady handling all the deep snapping duties and was recognized this preseason as a fourth-team All-America projection by Phil Steele's College Football Magazine.
As steady as Higuera has been snapping, so has holder Cannon Montgomery (5-10, 174), who enters his third year as the holder on all placements.
