Cole Peterson keeps Merrimack’s field-position game honest
Cole Peterson is a valuable Merrimack special-teams piece because he brings proven punting production and steady kicking utility, not just roster filler. In the 2022 season, he was named second-team All-NEC after pinning 22 punts inside the 20 and averaging about 39.6 yards per punt on 73 attempts, which tells you he can flip field position when the offense stalls. He’s the kind of specialist coaches trust: compact, experienced, and useful when hidden yards matter more than highlight reels.
