Dakarai Shanks Dakarai Shanks 5'10" | 190 lbs | RB Spain Park | 2025 State AL  is a dynamic pass-catching back that has been a huge asset for Spain Park’s offense this season. Shanks has strung together some great performances on the ground this season, and last week’s matchup against James Clemens was no different. Shanks had a huge night on the ground in his team’s 34-24 win, consistently making plays all night long. Shanks has a diverse skill set- he plays with great speed, acceleration, and elusiveness that make him a threat in open space, he routinely makes defenders miss and can take carries the distance. Shanks is also a great contributor to his team’s passing game- he has a reliable set of hands and great YAC ability that helps him take short check-downs for big gains. It was really impressive seeing all of these traits shine last week against James Clemens, Shanks ended up carrying the ball 26 times for 150 yards and a touchdown while also hauling in one reception for 23 yards. Shanks was all over the field making plays for his offense and was a huge reason why they won this game. Be sure to watch Shanks down the stretch of this season, he’s a talented playmaker looking to cap off his senior season with more big plays!
