What makes you stand out as a future collegiate athlete?

I stand out as a future collegiate athlete because I am an excellent student and athlete. I have a goal of being a college athlete as well as a college graduate. I want to take my skills to the next level and grow up to be someone in life. Someone people can look up to.

First team All-Region as a sophomore at Chattooga, the 2021 back moved over to Rome where he split carries with a senior back, but got most of the primary runs. Lackey has good acceleration, and is a physical runner getting downhill and has good timing with his cut backs. Would like to see more forward lean with his running. He put together a productive junior season. Nice little hesitation to running style can really throw defenders off. Subtle in how he jukes but very effective and very little wasted motion in how he runs. Lackey needs to get his pads lower when running the football, and continue to get stronger in the lower body. He has good running instincts for sure, and the speed to break off long runs. Definitely going to be watching how Lackey gains weight over the next year, that could really help him break thru these tackle attempts for even better yardage. He has improved his squat and power clean by about 30 lbs. already this offseason, and I think the 2021 back is set for a big season.
