Each year, the East-West Shrine Bowl provides college football players the opportunity to practice and participate in an all-star game in front of NFL scouts and coaches. Prior to the season, the Shrine Bowl releases a list of 1000 draft eligible players who are good candidates for the game itself.
Riley Riethman of Navy was one of ten punters named in the group.
