Last weekend versus Hancock (MD), Prosath Desantis kicked a 42-yard field goal to break the previous record of 34-yards held by Elliot Wood.
This is the first year the sophomore kicker has played football and so far this season he is one-for-two in field goal attempts and five of six in PATs. “He is a soccer player. He came over and wanted to play football,” said head coach Pete Lasavage.
“He is an outstanding young man and is an honor student.”
Q&A with head coach Pete Lasavage
What do you think his range is?
“I didn’t think it was 42. In practice he has been routinely kicking up to 35. I think in time he will rewrite all the kicking records here, he is pretty accurate.”
Does he play any other positions?
“He is my backup running back on offense and he starts d-back for me on defense.”

Congratulations Prosath upon your new record at Carson Long Military Academy. I was named after it a long time ago. You and I share a common talent. I used to kick field goals at: North Schuylkill HS, University Of Pittsburgh, and the Buffalo Bills all during the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. Keep up the excellent work, I’ll be looking forward to hear of your success. Friend of the Warriors: Carson G. Long
