You Are Athlete Event Coverage: Running back Notebook, Part I

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>On Saturday, May 2, 2026 I was invited out by You Are Athlete to cover their annual Regional Exposure Camp for the third consecutive year. This year's event was hosted by Piscataway High School and was, in my experience, their best yet. Featuring the best crop of talent I have seen out of their events yet, it was extremely well ran and plenty of reps to be had.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Below are my notes for a handful of prospects at the position group I referenced in this article's title.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Be sure to follow me on&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/BrendanScoutsNJ">Twitter</a>&nbsp;for the latest New Jersey high school football prospect news and not miss a beat!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1971875"],"_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-6a048feb7f22b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Despite registering for the event as a running back, my notes indicate that Imair Chester competed as a defensive back. Chester had a smooth and fluid backpedal. I also thought that this 2028 graduate closed space very well. Should he find himself in a losing proposition, Chester demonstrated that he has recovery speed to make up ground and compete for the ball while it is in the air. I suspect that he found himself in a few disadvantageous situations because his eyes might have been wrong.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Kaz Kelly","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2029","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Notre Dame","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a048feb7f3a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A true youngster, Kaz Kelly is a 2029 graduate who attends Mercer County's Notre Dame. In the little bit I caught of him, Kelly had a really nice play where he had to turn his shoulder to evade the linebacker, dipping in the process. This eliminate much of Kelly's contactable surface area, as he wedged through to gain additional yardage. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Marcus Anglin","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"NY","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_program":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a048feb7f4f6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A senior out of New York, Marcus Anglin is a running back that ought to be angling for a different role.

Still yet to complete his freshman year of high school, Barrow kept dragging his toes and feet on the tuft. His position coach told him once and explained that he could potentially get turf toe; but then sternly reminded him once more when he repeated the bad habit. That said, Barrow did show. burst of speed out of the gate.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">You Are Athlete New Jersey Regional Exposure Camp Event Coverage</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-yaa-event-coverage-the-offensive-eye-test">You Are Athlete (YAA) Event Coverage: The Offensive Eye Test</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-yaa-event-coverage-the-defensive-eye-test">You Are Athlete (YAA) Event Coverage: The Defensive Eye Test</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-event-coverage-defensive-back-notebook-part-i">You Are Athlete Event Coverage: Defensive Back Notebook, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-event-coverage-defensive-line-notebook-part-i">You Are Athlete Event Coverage: Defensive Line Notebook, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-event-coverage-linebacker-notebook-part-i">You Are Athlete Event Coverage: Linebacker Notebook, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-event-coverage-offensive-line-notebook-part-i">You Are Athlete Event Coverage: Offensive Line Notebook, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-event-coverage-quarterback-notebook-part-i">You Are Athlete Event Coverage: Quarterback Notebook, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/you-are-athlete-event-coverage-running-back-notebook-part-i">You Are Athlete Event Coverage: Running back Notebook, Part I</a><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
