Reiter Named Preseason All-American and Mannelly Award Watch Lister

Snapper Ross Reiter added two preseason accolades to his resume.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. – Colorado State long snapper Ross Reiter continued the Rams' preseason watch list run with two more accolades, earning preseason second team All-American honors from Rubio Long Snapping and an appearance on the Patrick Mannelly Award Watch List.

The Mannelly Award is given to the nation's top long snapper, and both appearances are career-firsts for Reiter. He has previously been named to Phil Steele's preseason All-Mountain West squad and was a second team all-conference performer from the publication last season.

Since assuming the role as a true freshman in 2018, Reiter has taken every possible special teams snap and has done so without earning credit for a single bad snap, a span of 273 total snaps covering punts and placed kicks.

Reiter and the Rams continue to work through preseason practices ahead of the Sept. 3 season opener vs. South Dakota State at Canvas Stadium.
