PRZ WV Showcase Top Performers Running Backs

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Arguably the best position group on hand Sunday, the Running backs were showing out all day. Another talented group that had players from each class making a difference. The MVP Honors went to Wahama High Senior [player_tooltip player_id='907169' first='Connor' last='Lambert']. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">MVP- [player_tooltip player_id='907169' first='Connor' last='Lambert'] Class of 2025</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["907169"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-677e87b62bf67"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The star of the day and his senior season was Wahama's [player_tooltip player_id='907169' first='Connor' last='Lambert'], who really dominated every drill. Not surprised in the least bit with how good he was, his testing numbers alone were the best amongst the whole camp. He had everyone talking and with a number of college coaches on hand, the uncommitted senior shined. The fastest 40 on the day with both times nearly under 4.5 (4.43 was his best), Lambert was unanimously voted MVP.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>You could see on hand what Matt Layton has been talking about for the past year, he is an explosive playmaker. Nobody could really run with him during the 1v1s portion and he was the leader in the individual drills. Lambert is going to make his future college very happy when he commits, the young man is ready to run through a brick wall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While it seems that every Division 3 school in the state wants his services, I expect many Division 2 schools to start offering Lambert any minute. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Top Performers</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1326535"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-677e87b62bfd0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1326535' first='Rudy' last='Carrillo'] was a walk up who came in and did his thing immediately, very impressive talent out of Fairmont Senior High School. The rising junior will no doubt be an impact player this fall, really liked how he catches the ball out of the backfield. Carrillo mixed in with the defensive backs too and that may naturally be his best position at the next level. The way he carried the football and made plays during the 1vs1s I think he has a bright future at running back too. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Good testing numbers and one of the better 40s times on the day, Carrillo made a good decision signing up at the last minute. He turned a lot of heads with his outing and is sure to be heard from in 2025. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["864596"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-677e87b62c01e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='864596' first='Jaden' last='Hatfield'] had an excellent day, competing from the moment he arrived at the complex. The number 1 running back in the class of 2027 more than earned a top performer spot. He is sure to turn heads again this fall coming off his ridiculous sophomore season where he rushed for over 2,000 yards. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1292038"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-677e87b62c069"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Freshman [player_tooltip player_id='1292038' first='Brody' last='Kehler'] is a name you are going to be hearing a lot more from in the coming years. Not only was he a top performer with the running backs group, he made standout plays with the receivers, defensive backs and linebackers! The young man was explosive in the individual drills and a beast in the 1vs1, Kehler was close to earning MVP honors. Really good testing numbers posted below, you are going to be seeing a lot more of Kehler in the not so distant future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Brody_k5/status/1876321503756820758","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Brody_k5/status/1876321503756820758 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["907164"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-677e87b62c0b2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Robert C. Byrd's top back [player_tooltip player_id='907164' first='Latrell' last='Jones'] acquitted himself nicely on the day with good testing numbers and standing out during the 1vs1s. Was not surprised he showed out as Jones is an all state running back for many reasons. He has several division 3 schools interested and Division 2 institutions are starting to court him as well. Jones had a great day and will surely be a hot commodity for many colleges. Whether or not the schools can keep him in state will be another question. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/Latrell67923928/status/1876059580784091627","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/Latrell67923928/status/1876059580784091627 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
