Keyon Thomas Keyon Thomas 5'11" | 215 lbs | RB Warren Central | 2027 State IN has always been a prospect to know, but he might’ve boosted his name even more on Friday when the Warriors stunned Center Grove on the road. Thomas ran wild, displaying great breakaway speed, ability to run through contact and excellent change-of-direction. The Trojans, typically strong on defense, had no answers for the 6-foot, 209-pound tailback. The Warriors will need a big game from him on Friday if they are to beat top-ranked Brownsburg.

Thomas continued his fast start to the year by continuing to move the chains and score TDs. Warren Central was all over North Central, and Thomas played a big part. The line gave him lanes, and he hit them, but he’s got quick feet and can create yardage as well. He had 2 TDs in the first half alone before they went up 35-0.

Thomas is a powerful back and has been the workhorse through 2 weeks. He’s carried the ball 45 times through 2 weeks for 298 yards and 4 TDs. Averaging over 6.5 YPC through his first 2 starts has surely drawn attention, and North Central will need to shut him down to win.
