He was a dominant back. He runs hard and breaks tackles with ease. He is able to run both inside and outside the tackles. He likes to get downhill as soon as possible and pick up chunk yardage. He also does a good job of beating the defense to the corner on sweeps. He will be a very big prospect.

Ituka had yet another monster game. He was a force. He was running through guys and breaking tackles. He ran downhill and ran behind his power well. He was able to pick up chunk yards and help his team move the ball. Churchill was stacking the box and selling out against the run. Ituka will still able to be very productive and further proved he was one of the best backs in the state.

Ituka has been Gaithersburg’s guy all year. They will play Churchill who has an explosive offense of their own. Gaithersburg will look to control the ball and keep the ball on the ground. Ituka is a great power back that has great success running the ball in between the tackles. He is so tough to bring down in open space so look for him to get the ball going to the outside. If he can make some momentum changing big runs Gaithersburg could pull off an upset.
