Stroud is a 3-sport athlete for Martinsville and he’s a stud at all 3 sports. Being a top basketball player as well for Martinsville, it’s clear his athletic ability is more than just a football field. However, what he does on a football field is second to none. He’s incredibly explosive, is as hard to bring down as anyone, and is as agile as you want someone with the ball in their hands to be. If you get the ball in his hands, he’ll make something happen. Teams started to kick away from him because they were tired of getting gashed in the kickoff game as well. Last season alone, he put up 1711 total yards. He’s got blazing speed and if he gets into the open field, you might as well get the kick-off team ready.
