Ohio State punter Drue Chrisman competes against conference foes for a great cause

Some Big Ten punters, including Ohio State’s Drue Chrisman had a punting challenge to benefit a great cause.

We told you last week when the Ohio State vs. Michigan game was canceled, punter Drue Chrisman had some fun at the Wolverine’s expense. Now Chrisman has teamed up with some fellow Big Ten punters for a great cause.

Punters Brad Robbins from Michigan and Jordan Stout of Penn State joined Chrisman via Twitter and put on quite an impressive show. The skill these guys exhibit is something you’ll have to see with your own eyes. The video is a two-part competition that ends with an unexpected twist.

“A Very Specialist Holiday” was inspired by former Minnesota punter, Peter Mortel who decided to use his bowl game gift card to purchase toys for patients at St. Joseph’s home for children. Mortel’s selfless idea is now in its fifth year of giving to those in need.

Give the videos a watch and stand in awe. You’ll be glad you did.

 

You can help the guys from Minnesota reach their goal of $14,500 and put some smiles on the faces of children who’ll be spending Christmas in the hospital by donating to their CrowdFund Page. You can even leave a comment with your love from a Buckeye. What a great way for fans to come together for a common good!
