September 30, 2015 | Football
WEST POINT, N.Y. – Lost in the midst of Army's record-setting offensive performance against Eastern Michigan was kicker Daniel Grochowski climbing the career charts.
Grochowski, a senior from Sarasota, Fla., set the Army record for career point after touchdowns at Rynearson Stadium in Ypsilanti, Mich.
Grochowski converted all six of his PAT's in Army's 58-36 victory over Eastern Michigan and became the school's all-time leader in career PAT's.
A four-year contributor, Grochowski has kicked 108-of-113 PAT attempts. Saturday, he passed Craig Stopa for the top spot. Stopa was 106-of-109 during his career from 1982-85.
Grochowski made 24-of-27 attempts as a freshman, 36-of-36 during his sophomore campaign, was 35-of-37 as a junior and is 13-for-13 this season.
Grochowski has been successful on 26-of-42 field goal attempts over his career and stands in seventh-place all-time in field goals made. Grochowski will tie Keith Walker (1985-89) and J. Parker (1995-96) with his next made field goal. Stopa holds the all-time record for field goals made with 48 and attempted with 68. Grochowski's 42 attempts are fifth in the record books, four behind Patmon Malcom (1990-92).
Army will play at Penn State Saturday at noon at Beaver Stadium. The game, already listed as a sell-out, will be televised live by ESPNU at noon.
