Boy is Tops in Punt Kick Pass Event

Chase Stoeger got to show his stuff as he punted, passed and kicked further than any of the others in his division in the finals of the NFL’s Punt, Pass and Kick competition at the Georgia Dome last weekend. Stoeger, a 9-year-old fourth-grader at Truman Elementary, was one of eight boys and girls his age to compete. In Saturday’s final round, Stoeger punted 89 feet, passed 82 feet and kicked 87 feet. Stoeger is a soccor player, and attributes his abilities to that fact. "The competition was was really hard," Chase Stoeger said while being honored at the Green River City Council meeting tuesday night. He added that the experience was "amazing."
