Stats: 18 Carries, 56 Yards, 1 TD, 6 Tackles

Elliot is an old-school battering ram of a FB and LB. The junior checks in at an imposing 5’11” 220 lbs and he does his best to use every pound to punish opponents. On offense the yards were extremely tough to come by but the big man was able to muscle his way to several short yardage conversions and a TD. On defense the big man used that same physical play style to control the inside run game and shed blockers. The numbers may not have been crazy but Havlish did his best to keep his offense balanced and converting 3rd downs.

Elliot was able to carve out a starting role on varsity in 2025 already. He was the leading rusher for the team, going for 123/682/11 on the ground. Good numbers for an athlete in the FB role of the Osceola offense. This year will be the chance for Elliot to prove he has taken that next step into becoming an even more dominant force with the ball. The 5’11” 220 lbs athlete can wear down front sevens with the way he keeps his balance and runs behind his pads. He is a north-south runner who is going to take what is there and then create what he can through contact. He will be the lead guy in the backfield after the graduation of seniors. So I want to see him come back even more powerful and we could also see him deliver even more at LB on defense too. I’m expecting Elliot to be the machine that moves this offense in 2026. Keep an eye on him.
