I believe all of them are willing to put in the work to be included in the conversation of up and coming ball carriers in this class.
Tommy Pellicciari is a 5’6, 160 lbs. RB/LB from New Jersey.
- multi-sport athlete (football, basketball, lacrosse)
- low center of gravity wins the leverage battle and he keeps legs driving on contact
- bursts upfield with good vision
More of a offensive player, might grab some reps on defense, but definitely can be a thorn to the side in special teams as well.
Highlights
DeSean Burnette is a 5’8, 160 lbs. RB/OLB from Tennessee.
- quick and shifty feet to bounce outside or cut back against the grain for big gains
- strong player who takes weight room seriously

Tough ball carrier with a knack for the end zone. Solid balance and wants to apply pressure on every opportunity.
Highlights
Caiden Bellard is a 5’6, 155 lbs. RB/WR from Louisiana.
- sure handed athlete that can be moved around
- finishes runs and plays fast
- takes care of the football and knows how to utilize blocks
Smart RB who finds extra yardage in every play. Winning attitude.
Highlights
Ennis Stiles is a 5’9, 185 lbs. from North Carolina.
- Great size! Powers his way to the echo of the whistle.
- Smooth, patient, changes gears when daylight opens.
- Nice hips and footwork in traffic
Built to make an immediate impact on Friday nights. Feed him!
Highlights
Bobby Reynolds is a 5’8, 155 lbs RB/ATH from Georgia.
- Slashing style and plays 100 mph

- Has a natural feel on when to get in and get out. Constantly changes pursuit angle for the tackler.
Gives max effort on each play. Find the ball and you will find Bobby.
