Coaches comments:  Cade is very talented.  He is one of the fastest and most elusive players on our football team.  Cade is also an excellent open-field tackler.  His wrestling background really helps him with that.  Cade was injured for a lot of 2021 and had a breakout year as a junior in 2022.  He had not played much running back since middle school and was one of the best RB’s in the league as a junior.  Cade is very coachable and always strives to get better.
