Coach Dan Hunt on Jonah: "Jonah in his sophomore year had one of the best kicking years in Colgate history. Then during his junior year, he struggled a little bit and he was determined this offseason to make himself better. He worked really hard on his form and now has come back and really been automatic for us this year, which has been great. He changed the kicking culture here at Colgate and he's going to break the all-time record. We weren't really a field-goal attempting team for a while, and we tried to change that. He was able to show that you can do it and he scored a lot of points for us."
