PrintOregon St.'s sophomore punter Johnny Hekker has been announced as one of 10 semi-finalists for the 2009 Ray Guy Award, given annually to the nation's top punter, by the Augusta Sports Council.
Hekker, from Bothell, Wash., was originally a walkon the the Beavers in the 2008 season, and earned both the starting job and a scholarship. He was named the 2008 Sun Bowl Special Teams MVP after booting 10 punts for an average of 45 yards in blustery conditions in El Paso.
