PHILADELPHIA – Junior punter Dante Atton has been named to the Pro Football Sports Network's 2025 All-American College Football First-Team. Atton put up consistent and strong numbers throughout the 2025 season to earn this recognition.
The 2025 PFSN All-America teams highlight the very best that we've seen this fall. It is packed with productive passers, rare talents at running back, outstanding wide receivers, heroic hog-mollies, and dominant defensive playmakers from front to back, all powered by our suite of PFSN College Impact metrics. Here is the full list of the PFSN All-America First Team Special Teams:
The specialists on this year's first team delivered season after season of clutch performances in the game's most high-pressure moments. Matsuzawa connected on a remarkable percentage of his attempts for the Warriors, including one game-winner and a 100% completion rate on kicks from 50+ yards. Temple's Dante Atton proved equally valuable in the field-position battle, consistently pinning opponents deep and limiting return opportunities.
This season, Atton has made waves on the field. The Australian native has punted 62 times in 2025 for a total of 2,615 yards. Atton averaged 42.18 yards per punt this season and his long went for 60 yards. He has pinned opponents within their own 20-yard line 27 times this season. In the final regular season game against North Texas, four of Atton's five punts pinned opponents within the 10-yard line. He pinned the Mean Green at its own seven, five, and one-yard line twice in the contest.
