🔼 Makin’ Plays! In 2025, kicker Will Bettridge led the University of Virginia football team in scoring for the third straight year and set a single-season program record by making 24 field goals.
Bettridge is back for a fifth year at UVA, and offensive coordinator Des Kitchings is happy he’s still in the program. But Kitchings hopes Bettridge won’t be called upon to kick field goals as often this fall.
