When TyVaughn took his first varsity snap at running back Coach Wade Brown knew he had something special. Kershaw went on to rush for over 1,300 yards in 2022. His quick burst and speed are a tough combination to slow down, he is often outrunning defenders.
Coach Brown says “TyVaughn had an outstanding freshman campaign in 2022. Led team in rushing while only playing in a total of 8 games. Has great vision and burst that will only get better. Rushed for 1361 yds. 18 rushing tds. Threw 3 td passes and returned a punt for a td”.
