Bruce Kallmeyer

Bruce Kallmeyer is regarded as one of the most potent offensive weapons in Kansas history thanks to his talents as a placekicker. Kallmeyer concluded his four-year Jayhawk career with single-season marks of field goals made (24), attempted (29) and the career record for field goal percentage (77.9). Kallmeyer also established new standards in the Kansas record book for most field goals in a game (5) which he recorded twice in his career, against Nebraska in 1981 and Wichita State in 1983. Kallmeyer also had four field goals in the Jayhawks' upset win over Southern California in 1983. Kallmeyer, who had a career-long 57-yard field goal against Iowa State as a senior, ranks fourth all-time in scoring with 233 points. His 98 points in 1983 qualifies as the third-best single-season mark in KU history and his 21 points against Wichita State in the same season represents the most single-game points by a KU kicker in history. His national accolades include being named a 1982 Academic All-American and a 1983 First Team All-American.
