The best player on the field was Hart. Although he was bottled up well by the Cardinals’ defense in the first half, his talent was obvious. The senior has good speed and quickness. He bounces off tacklers if they don’t wrap up. He was chipping away at the defense with short runs, but it was lights out when he and the offensive line got in sync. The entire game turned around when Hart took an inside handoff near his own goal line. He made one move at the line of scrimmage to squeeze through the hole. Then, he made a move to avoid a linebacker. The senior hit the accelerator at that point, showing his explosive speed. After the 75-yard run, he scored one play later, and the floodgates were opened. He showed excellent vision on an inside trap for 15 yards. Then, he made the signature play of the day. Hart started left, bounced off tacklers, and cut all the way to the right side of the field. He used a stiff arm to get to the corner and then used his speed to get to the sideline. He wasn’t done. A defender had the angle on him, but he used his strength and balance to stay inbounds while getting hit on the sidelines to stay inside the right pylon for the twenty-yard touchdown run. He continued to show what a nightmare he is for defenders in the open field as he made a couple of moves at the of scrimmage to convert on a third down and then a pair of moves on a later carry – leading to his third and final touchdown of the game.

One of the top RBs in the state, St. Thomas Academy’s Savion Hart toted the rock 18 times for 184 yards and 5 TDs as the Cadets beat up on Mahtomedi 42-14. 5A is stacked this fall.

Savion did not waste any time whatsoever showing off the accelerator I have seen Prep Redzone Minnesota Showcase after showcase for the last year or so, as his mid 4.4 40 yard dash time enlighten a lot of college coaches in Grand Forks last Saturday, as Savion was not done showing off his talents from just testing either. He also showed off from my eyes was one of the most electric pass-catchers from the running back position and one that showed off all of his agility getting off the linebacker and showing off how competitive he was with his route-running. Savion also continued to show how instinctive he has become as he shows each time there is more growth with his football IQ with how much instinction this young man runs within the backfield. Savion has been a hot commodity at the FCS level in recent weeks as this young man has shown off as a late FCS bloomer this July that has finally gotten the exposure he deserves based on how catchy and appealing his tape and performances at other showcases has been.
