Kansas State redshirt freshman kicker Matthew McCrane has been named the Big 12 Special Teams Player of the Week following the Wildcats’ 51-13 victory over Kansas, the conference office announced Monday.

The honor is the first in McCrane’s career.

A product of Brownwood, Texas, McCrane converted both of his field goal attempts from distances of 41 and 52 yards against the Jayhawks. His 52-yarder is tied for the 14th longest in school history, while he is the first Wildcat kicker since Jeff Snodgrass in 2006 to hit two 50-yarders in a season. He was also true on all five of his extra-point attempts to finish with 11 points in the contest.
