ROUND 7: Kickers
De La Salle
Starter: Doug Brien (1989, Cal, NFL 49ers/Jets/Saints).
Won a Super Bowl ring with the 49ers in 1994, the same year he set a record for most PATs in a single postseason (17). Made 80 percent of his FGs and 98 percent of his PATs.
Reserve: Ryan Christian (1992, UC Davis).
St. Thomas Aquinas
Starter: Brett Swenson (2006, Michigan State).
MSU's career leader in points, field goals and extra points.
Reserve: Wes Byrum (2007, Auburn).
Game-winning field goal to clinch national title is nice way to end a kicking career.
ST. THOMAS AQUINAS 10, DE LA SALLE 9: Brien gets major points for being the only NFL kicker for either team, however STA gets the nod for sending 11 straight specialists to Division I programs.
FINAL SCORE: St. Thomas 68, De La Salle 67. As usual, the kickers decide it at the end.
