Austin Johnson Commits to UTSA Roadrunners
Reed Raiders kicker Austin Johnson, a Class of 2025 standout, has committed to UTSA. The 5-foot-11, 165-pound specialist cited the Roadrunners' aggressive 3-4 defensive scheme as a key factor in his decision. Johnson believes his skills will translate well to the system, and he's excited about the opportunity to contribute immediately. With the departure of several key kickers from last season's roster, Johnson sees a clear path to earning playing time. UTSA's strong academic programs, including its renowned engineering department, also played a significant role in his decision. Johnson previously held a commitment to a rival program but decommitted in April to explore other options. He's expected to join the Roadrunners in the fall of 2025. Johnson's commitment to UTSA marks a significant addition to the program's special teams unit.
