With over 1800 yards rushing last season, Tapio is the top returning rusher in the state. He has excellent vision when running between the tackles and sometimes makes two or three moves in a two-yard area. Don’t let his quick feet fool you. Finishing tied for fourth in touchdowns, he is a more powerful runner than his size projects. If the defender doesn’t have him squared up, Tapio will bounce or spin off an arm tackle or run straight through it. Not just a one-dimensional player, Tapio is a good blocker – both in the running and passing game – takes some shotgun snaps in Wildcat formations and will catch a screen pass occasionally too.
