TMP-Marian senior kicker Drew O’Brien is taking his skills to Fort Hays State. The two-sport all-stater signed a letter of intent yesterday to play football for the Tigers.

O’Brien was a four-year starter on the Monarchs soccer team and earned all-state honors as a goal keeper last fall. He played football for the first time this past fall and booted three field goals of 45-yards or longer and more than half of his kickoffs went into the endzone. O’Brien was 19-of-24 on extra points. He also had a 38-yard punting average with a long of 60 earning him all-state honors in 3A by the Kansas Football Coaches Association.
