The C/O 2024 Running Back class is quite deep, with a diverse array of skillsets being shown off. Today I’ll be diving further into the top 3 running backs in the class of 2024!
<strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;">#1 [player_tooltip player_id="241282" first="Jake" last="Price"] (#18 overall)</span></strong>
The Muskegon Running Back was the only one to be named to an all-state 1st team, and he may be the fastest back with a blazing fast 100m dash time under 11 seconds. Price is a great elusive back who carried the ball 61 times rushing for 1,030 yards and 14 touchdowns. I can’t tell you how many times he was GONE within seconds of the play starting. Once his offensive line makes a hole, Price shoots through it with blazing speed and is off to the races before the defense even has time to react. He also has shown the ability to lead block quite impressively. I believe, when looking at his tape and accolades, Price was the obvious pick for #1.
<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>#2 [player_tooltip player_id="99436" first="Gabriel" last="Winowich"] (#21 overall)</strong></span>
Winowich has gotten plenty of attention for quite a while, and he surely deserves it. He’s an avid lifter who is still quite shifty and athletic. The Country Day Star racked up 20 touchdowns on the season, bulldozing and outrunning the competition. Winowich is an amazing back who may very likely get an all-state nod in 2022, and he’s still got a very high ceiling. I say this a ton, but I seriously cannot wait to see what kind of numbers Winowich will put up in 2022.
<strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;">#3 [player_tooltip player_id="229402" first="Rhett" last="Roeser"] (#36 overall)</span></strong>
What a year for [player_tooltip player_id="229402" first="Rhett" last="Roeser"]. Roeser was Offensive MVP for De La Salle this season, earning all-region honors with a state championship ring. Roeser offers a similar skillset of power and speed to that of Winowich and he does it extremely well in the De La Salle system. All season Roeser dominated the Catholic League and seemed to significantly improve as the season went on. With this De La Salle team returning a significant amount of players, Roeser is set to have his best season yet.
