Boston Makes It Big At Tough Tight End Slot
Austin College tight end Byron Boston, a 6-3 180 pound senior from Gladewater, has 33 receptions for 451 yards this season and has a reputation for blocking as a key to Kangaroo success. He moved into the starting role early, recalls a dramatic freshman comeback, and eyes a 2-5 season with a game against U S International University in San Diego. Boston stresses blocking over catching, and Coach Nutt backs his nonracial, hard-nosed ethic.
