Nate Flower’s Rocket Leg | WVU Football All 105

All 105 is a West Virginia Sports Now series profiling each member of the 2025 WVU Football Roster.

Redshirt sophomore kicker Nate Flower is a West Virginia native who grew up barely half an hour from WVU’s campus. He attended Fairmont Senior High and played at both kicker and punter. He also led the Polar Bears to a pair of state championships on the soccer pitch.

Flower served as the Mountaineers’ top backup at kicker last year — which only translated into one play all season at a position with only a handful of appearances per game — and will likely do so again in 2025.

Camp outlook: If Flower can’t take over the starting role, summer camp will serve as a tryout for 2026.

Projected role: Expect Flower to slot in behind redshirt senior Kade Hensley on the kicking depth chart this season.

Accolades, highlights: Flower made all 29 of his extra point attempts as a senior at Fairmont. He also recorded an 84 yard kickoff during kicking exposition in high school, outcompeting even the college starters in doing so.
