New York Stock Up Showcase: Running Back Notes

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With our region's first significant snowfall imminent and looming, I was back on the grind. On Saturday, December 13, 2025 Prep Redzone was boots-on-the-ground in Warwick, New York as we hosted our latest rendition of the Stock Up Showcase. Below are my notes from the position group referenced in this article's title.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the more impressive 'backs in attendance was [player_tooltip player_id='2066471' first='Tristan' last='Paganuzzi']. Paganuzzi, a 2028 graduate, was one of the more quick-and-shifty ball carriers in space. This made me reconsider my initial remark on him, where his feet were lacking during indy. Paganuzzi ought to be more conscientious of how he changes arms when carrying the ball... There might not have been a more physically impressive looking running back than [player_tooltip player_id='1274643' first='Christian' last='Bordeaux']. At 5'10" and 177lbs, Bordeaux was absolutely chiseled, brolic, and bocky - reminding me of myself in my younger years (that was a joke). For as impressive and powerful as he appeared, Bordeaux tried to dance to evade would-be defenders. A camp setting might not have been the best setting for him, as he Bordeaux profiles as a power runner.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Standing at 5'11", although I thought [player_tooltip player_id='1639382' first='Brysen' last='Fry'] ran a bit high he did so with forward lean. This forward lean, or running behind his pads as some call it, with 173lb frame makes him a prime candidate to fall forward when tackled. Moreover, the dreaded Turf Monster clipped him once throughout the afternoon... Listed at 195lbs, [player_tooltip player_id='2059062' first='Henry' last='Lach'] was the biggest back of note. Competing as still just a freshman, Lach managed to go top-shelf on a smaller defender when competing in 1v1s. He would be best served, however, to consistently use his hands - and not his body - to catch the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">New York Stock Up Showcase Coverage</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-bigs-eye-test">Eye Test - Bigs</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-skills-eye-test">Eye Test- Skills</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-mankarious-offensive-positional-mvps">My Most Valuable Offensive Players, by Position</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-mankarious-defensive-positional-mvps">My Most Valuable Defensive Players, by Position</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-defensive-back-linebacker-notes">Defensive Back + Linebacker Notes</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-defensive-line-notes">Defensive Line Notes</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-linebacker-notes">Linebacker Notes</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-defensive-line-notes">Quarterback Notes</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-running-back-notes">Running Back Notes</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2025/12/new-york-stock-up-showcase-tight-end-wide-receiver-line-notes">Tight End + Receiver Notes</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
