Meet The Coach

Former Minnesota Vikings kicker Scott Sisson still has more career game winning field goals than any other kicker in Georgia Tech history.

Scott Sisson, VikingsHe is a kicking coach who has experienced many, if not most of the things his students hope to achieve. He’s been there, and he now aspires to help other young kickers accomplish as much or more.

Scott kicked in National Championship games and NFL games including Monday Night Football and playoffs.  He’s kicked multiple game winning kicks for Georgia Tech (6 wins, 1 tie), as well as for NFL teams in both preseason and regular season games (Jacksonville and Minnesota).

In fact, he’s accomplished personal goals in kicking at every level including high school All-County, All-State, All-ACC, All-America, drafted in the 5th round of the NFL, D1 bowl records, and induction into the Hall Of Fame for a D1 college (Georgia Tech).  Scott has personally experienced both the ultimate highs AND lows of kicking (and how to reverse course when it seemed he’d hit rock bottom).

“Scott is a passionate teacher with his students, and he can speak the language at every level because he’s been there at every level, that means everything.”
