'09 Running Back Makes a Statement

Junior Running Back Washaun Ealey of Emanuel County Institute entered the Georgia Dome with a buzz as one of the top running back prospects in the Class of 2009. He didn't disappoint as he rushed for 280 yards and four touchdowns. ScoutTV was there to bring you the action.

Washaun Ealey of Emanuel County Institute entered the State Semi-Finals on Friday morning with a lot of buzz around his name. But being from a small Single A school in rural Georgia, not many people had gotten to see him in action.

If owning the state record for touchdowns in as season wasn't enough, Ealey had a statement game against Clinch County as he rushed for 280 yards and four touchdowns.

Ealey has very good speed, but what makes him a breakaway threat isn't just his speed, it's his ability to go between the tackles, make defenders miss, and break tackles. He runs with surprising power, great balance and vision.

Ealey is going to be one of the most heavily sought after players in the South for the Class of 2009, and you can see him in action from the Georgia Dome courtesy of ScoutTV.
