Sam Keltner Named AP Midseason All-American First Team Kicker

STILLWATER – Oklahoma State kicker Sam Keltner is having a great start to his redshirt sophomore season as he was named the first team kicker on the Associated Press midseason All-America team on Thursday.

Keltner is 12-for-12 on field goals and 19-for-19 on extra points through the first five games, earning him the Big 12 special teams player of the week three times and a two-time Lou Groza Award Star of the Week this season.
