Cristian Harthan brings size and upside to NC State's punter room
Harthan is a **6-foot-5, 190-pound** punter from Waxhaw, N.C., who arrives at NC State as a **freshman** with clear developmental upside and local recruiting value. His high school résumé shows he handled both punting and kicking duties, which suggests versatility, while his recruiting profile placed him among the notable 2025 punter prospects. [1][3][4][8][9] For a team, the appeal is his frame, specialization, and long-term ceiling rather than proven college production, since there are no available college game logs or stats yet.
