For a relatively unknown commodity, Sergio has been a very pleasant surprise coming in this year. His field goal percentage? 100%! 9/9. Punts are averaging 44.7 yards with his longest at 57.
Keep up the great work Sergio. You have earned your roster spot and are doing a solid job.
Doubters/ skeptics should be satisfied now. :thup:
Sergio Castillo has been exceptional after winning the job coming out of training camp, hitting all nine of his field goal tries this season, eight of which have been from beyond 30 yards. He’s also made five of his six convert attempts.
While his kickoffs have been less spectacular — he’s eighth in the league with a 62.2 yard average — his punting has been solid, averaging 44.7 per boot (fifth in the CFL.)

I thought his kickoffs on Thursday were pretty decent. You could definitely see the difference watching Castillo kick after Whyte. FG accuracy speaks for itself, but with deep punts and pretty solid kickoffs, he definitely has potential to be a great kicker on a difficult field. Looking forward to seeing more good things from him.
