Words from the Coach:
“Caden is a true workhorse, as he carried the ball 205 times last year for 1,458 yards with no fumbles and 20 touchdowns. Caden is a physical runner that has developed his vision and big play ability. Defensively, he has emerged as an edge rusher and a tough physical linebacker. Caden is set to break the all-time career rushing yards record this year.”
