<em>Part II of our 2025 watchlist breakdowns at the RB position. Prospects to look out for next season as some will be making the jump to Varsity and competing for opportunities. </em>
<b>[player_tooltip player_id="282707" first="Suitulaga" last="Gallegos Hunkin"]- St. Ignatius</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Gallegos Hunkin is a physical RB/LB that likes to play aggressively downhill on both sides of the ball. He shows lateral speed outside the tackles and solid leg drive through contact. He has the vision to find lanes between the tackles and balance to stay upright through tackles. Gallegos Hunkin is an intriguing prospect to keep an eye on in the Bay Area.</span>

<b>[player_tooltip player_id="282778" first="Taurian" last="Nash"]- Santa Margarita</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Nash is an aggressive downhill runner that showed ability to grind out tough yards and be an effective short-yardage back. He shows explosion at the LOS and ability to make a cut and hit the hole. He has the vision to find lanes and shows good fundamentals/footwork in the backfield. Nash should benefit from increased carries and opportunities in the coming seasons.</span>

<b>[player_tooltip player_id="133992" first="Stephen" last="Stiles"]- Murrieta Valley</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Stiles is a big-bodied athlete at 6’1”/210 with a versatile skillset. He operated as a RB and wing-back last season showing soft hands and ability to catch-and-run. It’ll be interesting to see how Stiles is utilized going forward given his body type and natural receiver skills could translate to multiple positions.</span>

<b>[player_tooltip player_id="282726" first="Brandon" last="Lambert"]- Cosumnes Oaks</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Lambert is a fast athlete that can get the corner on outside runs and possesses the speed to breakaway at the second level. He does a good job of finding outside lanes and sticking his foot in the ground to get vertical upfield. He’s elusive in space and produces a strong punch with his stiff-arm.</span>

<b>[player_tooltip player_id="282703" first="Dane" last="Dunn"]- Sierra Canyon</b>
<span style="font-weight: 400;">Dunn is a quick-twitch athlete that shows explosive burst at the LOS. He runs with a low center-of-gravity and pad level that allows him to bounce off tackles at the second and third levels. He shows good speed/acceleration through the hole and is shifty in space with quick feet. Dunn should compete for carries heading into his sophomore campaign. </span>
