Cam Casendino Cam Casendino 5'9" | 165 lbs | RB/LB Roxbury Jr. Gaels | 2031 NJ was a major factor on both sides of the ball for the Roxbury Jr. Gaels, turning five carries into 126 yards and three touchdowns while adding seven tackles defensively. His vision really stands out on film, especially in open space, where he does a great job reading his blocks, cutting across the field and finding the daylight. His offensive line opened up some big lanes, and Cam showed the burst and decisiveness to take advantage of them. Once he gets into the second level, he is not an easy back to bring down, using his balance and physical running style to keep plays moving. The combination of production, vision and two-way impact makes Cam a player to keep a close eye on.

The clear standout as a two-way player on the field for the Roxbury Jr. Gaels on the varsity level during the scrimmages. He looked strong breaking through the line of scrimmage and had enough speed to outrun the defense on the second level. The PRZ Next Middle School camp alum further solidified himself as not only one of the top 2031s in Morris County, but all of North Jersey.

Cam put together a strong winter, including a standout performance at Who’s Next, where his physical style of play immediately stood out. His 2025 highlights show the same traits, with Cam proving to be a dangerous downfield threat as both a runner and receiver. He has a strong feel for finding space in the passing game and plays with a bruising style once the ball is in his hands.

That physicality also shows up at linebacker, where Cam attacks downhill and embraces contact. While his versatility makes him valuable on both sides of the ball, his combination of power, athleticism and running ability makes him especially intriguing as a potential high-level running back moving forward.

Cam’s tape hit my feed for the first last week, and let me tell you, this kid’s a problem on both sides of the ball. As a runner and receiver, Cam is a big time downfield target, using that post corner route like a seasoned vet to shake his defender and haul in a sideline dime with sharp hand-eye coordination. His running style screams truck stick mentality, turning a quick stutter-step into high knee drives that bulldoze would-be tacklers.

Flip the script to defense, and Cam’s starring at linebacker, meeting backs in the hole with bad intentions. His highlights show him stonewalling a shifty runner for a loss, unfazed by the fancy footwork. While he’s a menace on D, that bruising, relentless energy feels tailor-made for the RB spot in high school, where he could carve out a lead role. If you haven’t caught his latest highlights from this past weekend, do yourself a favor and pull them up. This kid could be the real deal.
