Browne earns Academic All-America honors
TCU placekicker Nick Browne has been named to the first team on the 2002 Verizon Academic All-America Football Team.

Browne is the nation’s leading field goal kicker, converting an average of 2.00 field goals a game over the 2002 season. He was successful on 22-of-28 attempts, and became just the fifth player in TCU history to score 100 or more points in a season.

Browne, who also played on the TCU men’s soccer team this fall, carries a 4.00 GPA while working towards a degree in finance/real estate.

Browne becomes the first TCU player to receive first team Academic All-America recognition since 1980 when tackle John McLean earned the distinction.
