One of the greatest performances statewide in Round 1, Zahm totaled a ridiculous 226 total yards and 4 touchdowns in a 52-10 win over Wylie East. Carter showcases great vision and cutback ability through the line of scrimmage. He then uses great patience and precise footwork to set up his block downfield and hit running lanes as they open. He also totes the rock with a great frame and strong contact balance, running physical through tackles into the third level. Zahm also provides value in the receiving game, with good hands and after-the-catch ability. The Hawks have a massive Round 2 matchup versus Duncanville and expect them to ride Carter’s hot hand.

He displayed vision, balance, and versatility as both a runner and receiver.
Zahm is emerging as one of the most complete junior backs in North Texas, a player who can run inside, bounce outside, and make plays in the passing game.
