Amaru Byrd Amaru Byrd 6'1" | 202 lbs | RB/LB West Catholic | 2029 State PA already looks like a varsity running back physically, and his early playing experience is helping him develop confidence at a rapid pace. At 6-foot-1 and 202 pounds, Byrd combines size, balance, and downhill running ability that can wear defenses down. Young backs with varsity reps often gain valuable experience in vision, patience, and pass protection, and those lessons should benefit him long term. His frame suggests he can continue adding strength without sacrificing athleticism. Byrd has the potential to become one of the more productive young backs in the state as he continues developing within West Catholic’s program.
