North Carolina punter and Australian native Tom Maginness played in his first college football game this past Saturday against Miami. Yes, it was the first game of his Tar Heels career. But it was also the first football game he has ever played in his life. The Australian punted six times vs. the Hurricanes for 230 yards. Two of them landed inside the 20. (On3.com)
