High school kicking game struggling

At first I thought it was me, but after nearly nine weeks of high school football it’s become clear that the already shaky high school kicking games have been just plain abysmal this season.
Extra points cost Norman North in a loss to Mustang. Many of the city schools don’t even bother to line up for PATs, opting to go for two instead. And it also extends to punting where we’ve seen snaps over punters heads just about every week.
PC coach Mark Little has noticed it, too.
“We’ve noticed it every week,” Little said. “We’ve talked about it as a staff. I don’t know if it’s just an an anomoly or what. Putnam North and Norman North have fairly good kickers, but this is as poor as I’ve ever seen the kicking games in Class 6A.”
