Arizona Punter Kyle Dugandzic has been named the Pac-12 Special Teams Player of the Week after his impressive performance in a 38-35 loss to the Oregon State Beavers.
Dugandzic punted five balls for 234 yards for an average of 46.8 yards per kick.
Four of Dugandzic’s five punting attempts landed inside the 20 yard-line, including a career best 70 yard punt that pinned the Beavers on their own five-yard line late in the third quarter with his team down 24-21.
The Wildcats forced a fumble four plays later that helped set them up for an eventual go ahead touchdown.
On the season, Dugandzic currently ranks third in Pac-12 and 18th in the nation in punting average with 44.89 yards per kick.
The Wildcats travel to Palo Alto next Saturday to take on the No.18 Stanford Cardinal.
