Bio
2016 (Sophomore): Madonia moved up into the main kicker role for the Golden Eagles and excelled, completing 13 of his 16 field goal attempts and 33 of his 35 extra-point tries. After missing his first two of the season, Madonia hit eight straight field goals between the Austin Peay and Eastern Illinois contests before missing his first try at Tennessee State. But from that game on, he closed out the season with seven straight successful kicks -- including a school-record 57-yarder against the Tigers, the longest for the Golden Eagles since Ryan Weeks (1989) and Murray Cunningham (1974) kicked 53-yard completions. The kick was tied for the longest in the Football Championship Subdivision with TSU's Lane Clark, who kicked a 57-yarder earlier in the season.
Madonia was named to the All-Ohio Valley Conference team as a second-team specialist. He ended the campaign with a team-high 72 points, tied for the fifth most in school history in a single season behind Dontey Gay (90, 2011), Larry Shipp (90, 2007), Michael Penix (78, 1995) and Larry Schreiber (78, 1969) and tied with Josh Foster (72, 2004) and Jason Ballard (72, 2003).
2015 (Freshman): Madonia handled kickoff duties last season.
HIGH SCHOOL: A third-team All-Midstate selection, Nick Madonia was a kicker from Centennial High School with a strong leg and tremendous accuracy. The grandson of legendary Overton football coach Nick Coutras, Madonia connected on 9-of-13 field goal attempts in 2014, including a season-long 52-yarder in the Cougars' Week 6 win over Mt. Juliet. He also converted 47-of-49 extra-point attempts and averaged 35.4 yards on 41 punts, helping lead Centennial to a 10-3 record and the Class 6A quarterfinals. On kickoffs, he had 36 touchbacks. He scored 74 points as a senior, and finished his career with 252 total points. In his prep career, he was 31-for-43 on field goals.

News mentions
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Dontae Wright didn’t want to stay away from Tennessee Tech for long. After serving on the Golden Eagle football staff for the past two seasons, when presented with the opportunity to reprise his role as the program’s special teams coordinator, Wright already knew his decision. After all, he had a lot of good reasons – all clad in purple and gold.
BRENTWOOD, Tenn. -- The contributions that senior wide receiver Dontez Byrd and junior kicker/punter Nick Madonia brought to the Tennessee Tech football team are very familiar to Golden Eagle football fans. They certainly didn't go unrecognized by the rest of the conference either. As the Ohio Valley Conference released its annual All-OVC postseason honors, the Golden Eagles garnered a first-team offense nod for Byrd and a second-team specialist for Madonia.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Winless no more. After eight long weeks, all the Tennessee Tech football team wanted to do was get a notch under the win column, to get proof that the process was indeed working. With renewed vigor following the off-week and with the Sergeant York Trophy in play, the Golden Eagles made a statement on Saturday, earning a huge 30-26 victory over visiting Tennessee State.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- As the 2017 campaign winds into the home stretch, the Tennessee Tech football team looks to finish strong with a run at the Sergeant York Trophy, starting with this week's Ohio Valley Conference contest against Tennessee State. The Golden Eagles have won the last two meetings with the Tigers and will try to make it three straight wins for the first time since 2000-2002. Kickoff on Saturday from Tucker Stadium is scheduled for 1:34 p.m.
CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. – Southeast Missouri put two scores on the board quickly and that turned out to be all the homestanding Redhawks needed on Saturday afternoon, beating Tennessee Tech 31-3 at Houck Field. With the loss, the Golden Eagles fall to 0-7, 0-4 in the Ohio Valley Conference play.
CAPE GIRARDEAU, Mo. -- In the midst of a tough start, the Tennessee Tech football team continues to push on, ready to hit the road once again as they head to Cape Girardeau, Mo., to take on Southeast Missouri for a 1 p.m. Ohio Valley Conference contest on Saturday. Despite the 0-6 start to the season, there's still several things for the Golden Eagles to play for as the 2017 campaign winds down, but the focus this week is trying to get that first win under their belts -- and the Redhawks are a good opportunity to attempt that. In the teams' 25 meetings, the Golden Eagles hold a 15-10 record, including winning seven of the last 10 contests.
CHARLESTON, Ill. – With the way Nick Madonia was kicking the ball on Saturday, there was no doubt that he was the player that head coach Marcus Satterfield wanted in the potential game-winning situation. There were just 10.2 seconds remaining. Madonia was lined up to attempt a 49-yard field goal. Surely, it was nothing – he had already kicked a 51-yarder into the wind earlier to try to keep the Tennessee Tech football team on top.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Earlier in the week, Tennessee Tech head coach Marcus Satterfield challenged senior wide receiver Dontez Byrd to provide more leadership. And considering the numbers Byrd put up on Saturday night against FCS No. 5 Jacksonville State, it’s safe to assume that the senior listened. Byrd caught six passes for 92 yards and a touchdown to lead the Golden Eagles, but the effort came up short as the defending Ohio Valley Conference champions defeated Tech 34-7 at Tucker Stadium.
RICHMOND, Ky. -- With the number of turnovers the Tennessee Tech football team committed on Saturday night, it would have been hard for any team to overcome that adversity. Still the Golden Eagles found a way, rallying in the fourth quarter, and even had a chance to win it. But false start penalties proved costly, running crucial time off the clock and Eastern Kentucky ruined any chance of a Tech comeback win, sacking Andre Sale for the final of the contest and sealing a 24-21 defeat.
RICHMOND, Ky. -- The preseason is over and the Tennessee Tech football team is on the hunt for its 11th Ohio Valley Conference title. The Golden Eagles open their 2017 OVC slate on Saturday as they travel to Richmond, Ky., to take on the Eastern Kentucky Colonels. Kickoff on Saturday is slated for 5 p.m. Central. Roger Ealey and Dylan Vazzano will provide the call on 98.5 KISS FM, while Eastern Kentucky's radio crew of Greg Stotelmyer and Jim Tirey will cover play-by-play and analyst duties for the OVC Digital Network.
BRENTWOOD, Tenn. -- Nick Madonia played his part in Tennessee Tech's 28-13 effort at Ball State on Saturday, and his day was recognized by the Ohio Valley Conference's football contacts as Madonia split the OVC Specialist of the Week award when it was announced on Sunday. Madonia was 2-for-2 on field goals and connected on his PAT try in the contest, but his punting duties also came through on Saturday as he averaged 46 yards on four punts. He had a 58-yard punt in the contest and pinned the Cardinals inside the 20 twice.
MUNCIE, Ind. – For the Tennessee Tech football team, preseason is officially over. In what was a closer contest than many probably expected, the Golden Eagles hung in with their Football Bowl Subdivision brothers out of the Mid-American Conference, Ball State, and battled to the end, falling 28-13 on Saturday in Muncie, Ind.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – If anything was true for the Tennessee Tech football team on Thursday night, it was definitely a learning experience. Squaring off with the FCS No. 25-ranked Western Illinois Leathernecks, the Golden Eagles had a tough time putting together offense against a tough defense. However, there were plenty of positives for Tech to continue to build on following the 41-14 loss at Tucker Stadium.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – All the weeks of grit, work and sweat have culminated in this. As the coin is flipped and the first ball is kicked off, the season will have begun for the Tennessee Tech football team as the Golden Eagles host Western Illinois on Thursday night. The game is scheduled for a 6:04 p.m. kickoff.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Tennessee Tech junior kicker Nick Madonia had a fantastic season last year for the Golden Eagles, earning a finalist nod for the Fred Mitchell Award, which celebrates the top kickers in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision, Division II, Division III, as well as NAIA and NJCAA. On Monday, it was announced that Madonia will start the season on the Mitchell Award watchlist.
COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- Another week has flown by for the Golden Eagle football team, culminating in the team's second scrimmage of the camp season. Like the earlier scrimmage, today's event at 3:30 p.m. is CLOSED to the public.
