A player that I spoke about in the pre-season with their coaching staff, Woodford had a tremendous game against Fieldston (NY) on behalf of Pingry. Woodford was tied for the state lead in interceptions this week with 3. One of these picks went the other way for 6 points. Additionally, Woodford scored twice on the ground and once through the air. His four scores accounted for 24 of Pingry’s 36 points in an unbelievable individual performance. I think it goes without saying that Woodford did his part in the 36-6 victory.

Woodford might be able to slip out of a fight in a phone booth. Blessed with extremely quick and nimble feet, we see that Woodford is capable of making several cuts in the backfield before finding and hitting a crease. It also helps when you appear to be the single fastest player on the field at any give moment. Perhaps the most impressive play I saw on his film, Woodford was given the ball on, what I thought to be, an incorrect zone read by the quarterback. His outstanding vision was on display, where he cutback up the middle and evaded the one-on-one tackler with ease. When cutting back Woodford is unafraid to do so toward the middle of the field either. Lastly, when he is the focal point of a pile Woodford keeps his feet moving and thus moves the pile forward for extra yards. Loaded with explosive plays, I think colleges coaches will also appreciate seeing clips of him in pass protection and running his track.
