Elite 11 2008: Joe Thomas
Monday, August 18, 2008Joe Thomas, RB., Sr., 5-11, 190, Blackville-Hilda
Thomas is a bully. Plain and simple.
He runs hard, and despite not having a big frame -- he’s slender -- lowers the shoulder and powers through defenders.
He also does a good job of keeping his legs moving in a pile. Thomas led Blackville-Hilda on offense in 2007 with 1,170 rushing yards and seven touchdowns.
