Here is one I like to hear different opinions on your favorite RBs in N.C. HS football down through the years. Any classification. Lot of good ones down through the years.
Your favorite Running back
- Thread starter Vik-Val 86
- Start date
I have several in mind that I personally seen. With South Iredell. Tyrone Westmoreland, Cameron Mattox, Lachaston Smith, and then Kevin Parks of West Rowan.
Rico dowdle is my number 1 … he was a RB that was put a qb for his senior year but was/is still a RB
Angus weaver was an absolute joy to watch for 4 years at Polk co …

Manny Deshauteurs from Brevard was just a fun ball player to watch all over the field. Very shifty at RB.
Johnny White at Asheville was a good one. He and Butler were great enough athletes that they made a very simple offense explosive.

I saw Baker as a freshman and knew he would be special.
This goes way back to about 1966-67 I think but Statesville's undefeated team had Eddie Gamble at Full Back and Lynn Davenport at Tailback. That was a tandem. Just for the record, I did not attend Statesville HS except on a few fall Friday nights along with most of Iredell County.
A lot of big time names on this list that went to big schools and some made it to the NFL. An under the radar name was Kujuan Pryor for Burns. He had one of the best individual performances I have seen in the playoffs at Hibriten several years back. Everyone will tell me if I'm wrong, but I think he holds the Cleveland County record for rushing yards as well. The kid could absolutely fly, and at only 5'6", he hid behind the lineman so well.
