Skillings has become the definition of a touchdown maker for Williams Field. Last fall as a junior he averaged over six yards a pop while punching in 14 scores, many of them in the red zone. He runs with that upright, gliding style that makes him look smooth in the open field, but he’s also got the lateral quickness to sidestep would-be tacklers and the power to run through arm tackles. What makes him dangerous is how he combines his long strides and breakaway speed with real vision — he sets up blocks, accelerates out of his cuts, and turns daylight into six points. He became the Black Hawks’ closer when they needed to finish drives. Heading into his senior year, he’ll be sharing carries again with Courshawn HillCourshawnHill

, but that might be a good thing. Hill’s presence keeps defenses honest, which allows Skillings to keep doing what he does best: finishing. Against a tougher schedule with Chandler, Basha, and Brophy on the slate, expect Williams Field to lean on him in those money situations.

brings a unique blend of size and burst to the backfield that makes him a tough assignment for any defense. At 6’0”, 200 pounds, he runs with long strides that open up quickly in the second level, but he’s also got the lateral quickness to make guys miss in tight spaces. He’s physical enough to run through arm tackles, but it’s that upright, gliding style — mixed with sudden cuts — that makes him unpredictable. He’s not just an athlete playing running back — he’s a back with legit vision and feel. He does a nice job of setting up lanes, accelerating out of his cuts, and finding daylight where most wouldn’t. And once he’s in the open field, he’s a threat to score every time. There’s still room to refine some of the pad level stuff, but Skillings is a dynamic weapon who brings real home-run potential to every snap.

brings elite athleticism to the backfield. At 6 feet tall and 206 pounds, he’s got the size to absorb contact but also the long strides that give him impressive breakaway speed. Despite that length, he’s still shifty enough to make defenders miss in the open field. He does tend to run a little upright, but so far, that hasn’t made him any easier to bring down. His combination of size, speed, and agility makes him a dangerous weapon, and he’s only getting better with each game.
Skillings flashed throughout his junior year showing off his dynamic ball carrying ability that combines his strength and speed. He’s a solid 6’0” 205 lb. back that gets down hill and attacks the lane with speed. Accelerates in the short area out of his cuts and shows good vision finding space. Does a great job using his lateral agility to make the first guy miss at the LOS. Carries the ball with balance and body control to run through contact and holds the long speed to cap off runs in the endzone. Finished last season with 770 yards on 125 carries with 14 touchdowns. Debuts inside the top five at his position in the 2026 state rankings.
