NFL rookie sensation had former V-S punter Jay White as college coach
Even though Jay White never made any All-District teams as a kicker/punter for the Vinton-Shellsburg Vikings, he later taught himself to kick a football so well that he became a Division 2 All-MIAA Conference punter.
Now Jay is teaching college kickers and punters how to kick a ball through the uprights or make it soar high and far into the opposing team’s territory. Vinton-Shellsburg Girls' & Boys' Golf Team Fundraiser Outing
