Coach Dave Legg has done a nice job coaching Peter and allowing him to develop into a record breaking kicker. Peter "bulked up" this offseason and I would not be surprised if he consistently boots it out of the end zone on kickoffs all season long.
 
in two seasons Peter has gone from an untested freshman to a pre-season AA and CAA pick...

prior to Peter breaking through consistent place kicking was always near the top of many Spider fans anxieties...he has lowered the level..,

good luck for the great season most expect...

Go Spiders!
