EP: 158 The Accidental Football Punter Becomes One Of The Best In The Country
www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com In seventh grade, Albert Jang knew his dream school was West Point.
In eighth grade, he accidentally got on a bus that gave him a route to the Army\u2019s prestigious academy.
\u201cMy teacher said if we were taking weight training, go onto the platform,\u201d Jang said. \u201cHe forgot to say, \u2018Only for football players.\u2019 So I got on a bus not knowing where I was going. Then they took us on the field. My friend had a pair of cleats and I didn\u2019t want to back out now.
\u201cThey said, \u2018Go to your positions.\u2019 I played soccer so I thought, \u2018I guess I can kick the ball.\u2019 It worked out. It\u2019s a blessing for sure.\u201d
Jang, now a senior at Peachtree Ridge, is rated among the top punters in the country. He was the first to commit to Army\u2019s 2020 class in March.
