Nate Hillenburg • Class of 2021 • Punters

 

Player Review

Nate is an excellent high school punting prospect. He is a good looking athlete with a strong leg. Nate has an ideal frame for a college level punter. He punts for a nice combination of distance and hang time. His footwork is solid. He has all the tools to compete at the next level. I look forward to seeing what the future holds. Nate is a fine young man that is always a pleasure to work with. Solid prospect. Nice addition for Cornell.

"Nate attended the Punt Only Camp in Crown Point and showed some great punts. He is a huge young man with a great punting frame. He was a good holder as well, which is important. Nate really gets his long leg through the ball and hit many of his punts 40-45 yards and 4.2+ during the training portion of camp. Nate also showed the ability to rollout when hitting directional right punts. During charting, Nate averaged 40 yards per punt with his best ball being 44 4.36. When Nate figures out how to use his frame to the fullest extent he will be very, very good. He was an absolute pleasure to have at camp and very coachable. Nate should compete with the best of the best at he upcoming Las Vegas Events."

"Nate is a big, tall, athletic punter who recently did a virtual ranking and evaluation. He is a two step punter that has very good rhythm and operation from catch to kick. Nate showed he can hit balls 40+ yards with 4+ seconds of hang time. He also showed his diversity by including some rollout punts on his directional rights. He was able to hit 40+ 4.0+ balls on the rollouts as well. Nate had good control of his directional punts! With continued work on strength and consistency, Nate can definitely move up in the rankings. We look forward to working more in the future!!"
