, who may be the fastest among them when it’s all said and done. Peris posted back-to-back 11.09 100M times this past outdoor season, one of which happened at the Section 3AAA True Meet, as well as a couple 11.3 times for good measure. Plus, he’s PRed at 48.83 in the 300M hurdles. The 175 lber. also tallied 20 carries for 272 yards and 2 TDs in the crowded backfield, positioning himself well for a leading role in the 2025 offense, and I am stoked to see him hopefully run sub 11 seconds this upcoming track season.
Peris spotlights his explosiveness in the opening rep of his junior tape with a 90-yard return against Hopkins, going basically untouched up the right sideline after a beautiful vertical cut off his right foot, working upfield, and hitting another notch of acceleration, blowing by three more Royal pursuers. The junior is a big play back who can finish big runs for six and take advantage of defenses once he’s given daylight or has space at the second level. He’s a fluid cutter, shows good footwork, solid vision, and the in-game awareness of how to manipulate and take advantage of his blockers. Plus, he can finish contested catches out of the backfield and has strong hands. Make sure to follow this Shakopee Saber during the outdoor track & field season this spring.
