Patriots' Kicker Bryce Allen Seeks Redemption in 6A
Bryce Allen's 55-yard game-winning field goal against 5A's Creekwood High in the preseason last year earned him the starting kicker role for the Oakland Patriots. The Class of 2025 transfer from North Carolina's Charlotte Christian School has been a key addition to the Patriots' special teams unit. Allen's strong leg and accuracy have been on full display during the team's summer camp. The 6-foot-1, 170-pound senior has been working on his technique, fine-tuning his follow-through and building up his leg strength. As a result, he's been able to consistently hit kicks from 50 yards and beyond. With the Patriots looking to make a deep run in the 6A playoffs, Allen's performance will be crucial. Scouts are watching to see if he can maintain his form and accuracy throughout the season, particularly in high-pressure situations. Will Allen's strong start be enough to propel the Patriots to a championship?
