The senior punter finished his career with an NCAA-record 47.8 yards per punt average.
Â
FORT COLLINS, Colo. – After concluding his career with an NCAA-record mark of 47.8 yards per punt, it is only fitting that Colorado State senior punter Ryan Stonehouse also snags an All-American distinction for a third time in his career.
Â
An All-American in 2018 and 2020, Stonehouse picked up second team honors from Pro Football Focus following the best campaign of his career.
Â
Stonehouse averaged a school-record 50.9 yards per punt in 2021, the second-best mark in the country, as he set NCAA career records for most 50+ yard punts as well as most career games over a 40.0-yard average. He was also named a semifinalist for the Ray Guy Award, given to the nation's top punter, for the first time in his career.
Â
He is the first Ram to earn second team or better honors in multiple seasons of his career, and the third Ram punter overall to reach All-American status joining Jimmie Kaylor (2005) and Hayden Hunt (2015).
Â
Stonehouse is the third Ram this season to pick up All-American honors, joining Mackey Award winner Trey McBride and freshman safety Jack Howell.
