FAYETTEVILLE, AR – The Burlsworth Trophy announced 73 players nominated from Division 1 (FBS) schools from across the country for the 2023 Burlsworth Trophy. University at Buffalo kicker Alex McNulty was among the nominees.
The Burlsworth Trophy is given to the most outstanding football player in America who began his career as a walk-on and has shown outstanding performance on the field. Each nominee must have begun his first season of participation with FBS (D1) football program without financial aid of any kind from his university's athletic department.
McNulty began his UB career as a walk-on in 2018 and has developed into arguably the best kicker in program history. He is the school's all-time leader in field goals (57), extra points (187) and points scored (357). He is a two-time All-MAC selection and was the 2022 MAC Special Teams Player of the Year.
A four-time Academic All-MAC selection, McNulty was the 2022 SUNY Male Scholar Athlete of the Year.
