About Elijah
Expert Analysis
Jeff Perkins | Prep Redzone Scout
After finishing both his sophomore and junior seasons as the Cougars’ leading tackler, Hawkins has smoothly transitioned into his additional offensive roles and his rushing performance was instrumental in Logan County’s 29-26 win over Allen County-Scottsville. Breaking free for 160 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries, he also turned in his customarily impactful night defensively with 5 solo tackles, 3 assists and 2 tackles for loss. A physical downhill runner with exceptional pad level and the ability to run through initial contact, he currently leads all Cougar rushers with 410 yards and 4 touchdowns on 50 carries and also still leads all defenders with 33 solo tackles, 14 assists, 6 tackles for loss and 1 forced fumble. Most likely projecting as an outside linebacker or drop-down safety and special teams performer at the next level, his long-term production and versatility are sure to attract ongoing interest from a number of college programs.
