Malik Thompson: Jesuits' Kicker Breaks New Ground
Fairfield Prep Jesuits kicker Malik Thompson made 23 of 28 field goal attempts last season, a 82.1% success rate that earned him a Power 4 offer, the first from his program. The 6-foot-1, 180-pound Class of 2025 kicker's strong leg and accuracy have drawn attention from top programs in the region. Thompson's ability to hit from beyond 50 yards has been a key factor in his recruitment, with scouts praising his technique and consistency. As a junior, Thompson also booted 71 of 75 extra points, showcasing his clutch gene. With the Jesuits set to open their season in late August, Thompson will look to build on his impressive resume and solidify his position as one of the top kickers in the state. Scouts are watching to see how Thompson handles pressure and if he can maintain his high level of performance throughout the season.
