The University of Tulsa long snapper Adam Higuera was named one of 20 preseason candidates to the Patrick Mannelly Award Watch List.

The Patrick Mannelly Award is presented to the best FBS senior long snapper and is in its second season. The 6-1 senior has been flawless as Tulsa’s long snapper since his first game as a true freshman in 2017. In his first career contest, Higuera scored Tulsa’s first touchdown of the 2017 season after recovering a fumbled punt in the end zone against Oklahoma State.
