It was a stellar first year donning the orange and blue for RB Sage Giddings Sage Giddings 5'9" | 200 lbs | RB Omaha Westview | 2027 State NE , who easily took the reins as Westview’s workhorse back. Gidding toted the rock 153 times for 871 yards and 12 touchdowns with a physical running style. Sage earned his first offer from Morningside after a recent visit but has mostly kept a low profile on the recruiting scene, instead hitting the weight room hard and gearing up for a busy 7v7 schedule. Schools like Augustana, Missouri Western State, Washburn, Northwest Missouri State, Cincinnati, Wayne State, Marist, Chadron State, South Dakota State, and UMass have expressed interest in getting him in for a camp.

Junior RB Sage Giddings Sage Giddings 5'9" | 200 lbs | RB Omaha Westview | 2027 State NE has been on a tear this offseason with a strong camp cycle and what should be a bigger role on a new team. Sage was a Swiss-Army Knife player at Omaha South last season, where he led the team in passing and rushing, with a total of 395 passing yards, 437 rushing yards, 40 receiving yards, a passing touchdown, four rushing touchdowns, and a receiving touchdown. Now at Westview, it looks like Sage will be able to focus solely on playing running back offensively. Giddings has a strong, compact frame at 5’9″, 200 pounds that is tough to bring down on initial contact, especially when he gets his powerful base churning for more yardage. Watching Sage at some of our showcases, I was very impressed with how quick and agile he is, showing that he can work well in tight quarters by making swift cuts. Good footwork and balance. Also, don’t sleep on Sage as a receiving threat out of the backfield; he’s proven to have great hands and can create separation. This upcoming season has “Breakout” written all over it for Sage!

Expect the Wolverines’ rushing attack to be fierce next season with the addition of incoming junior Sage Giddings Sage Giddings 5'9" | 200 lbs | RB Omaha Westview | 2027 State NE . Sage had a big-time performance at the Combine Series, earning RB MVP honors.

As I watched Sage throughout the camp, I noticed some traits that really stood out from his game, including his vision, smooth change of direction, and sharp cutback ability. He also looked great as a receiving back who can create separation from defenders and has strong hands to hold on to contested catches. Giddings posted marks of 4.93 (40-yard dash), 4.53 (shuttle), and an 8’1″ broad jump. Big season coming up for Sage!
