About Colby

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I’m a consistent kicker and punter who values clean mechanics, accuracy, and reliability in pressure situations.

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

Calm, focused, and dependable. I stay coachable and handle pressure well.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Used to play soccer, currently just focused on getting better at my craft every day.

What type of college are you looking for?

Any Collage that values Kickers/ Punters is what I am looking for.

Our new K1 in the 2027 North Dakota class is from 2025 state champions Fargo Davies, as Colby Nelson Colby Nelson Colby Nelson 5'10" | 165 lbs | K Fargo Davies | 2027 State ND takes over the top spot. He made a 44-yard field goal against the wind during the regular season and did so like it was clockwork from a length perspective as surely he looked like he could hit from 50 yards from the angle I had on tape. There’s also no doubt that Colby has the best hangtime I have seen yet in the Dakotas overall, as his kicks get up with authority. Surely one of the best specialist prospects out there in either of the Dakotas in my eyes in this class.
