About Paul
Expert Analysis
Ed OBrien | Prep Redzone Scout
Alston had a solid start to his career as a freshman. He carried the football 127 times for 429 yards and four touchdowns. He was able to get his feet wet and taste what it’s like to play in one of the toughest leagues, the WCAC Capital Division. What he does in between now and the start of next season will determine how much of a leap he makes on the field.

Paul has bursted on to the scene these recent weeks and has become Good Counsel’s top performing RB. With breakout games against Columbus (OH) and Middletown (DE), he showed why he is a star RB in the making. In the Middletown game he had 75yds and 2 rushing TDs on 6.3 ypc. For the year he’s totaled 194 rushing yds. 3 TDs on a strong 5.2 ypc. He’s got a nice compact build with a strong lower half. Showing nice vision, patience & burst the LOS to hit the hole and get up field. Once in the open field Paul runs hard, with good pad level and keeping his legs churning. Not easy to bring down while also being nimble with good feet and a low center of gravity. Alston can handle the load of being an every down RB and I expect him to only get stronger in his production as the year goes on.
