Top Returning RB’s Class 2A
I am picking my Top Returning RB’s based on last year’s stats and team finishes. If your team has a new starting RB it will be hard to judge but halfway through the year I will update this list. The bottom 5 RB’s are from teams that could use improved RB play to improve their record. Determing the order for the Top 5 running backs came down to success for teams last year. Ullery lead Elizabeth to the playoffs last year which is why I gave him the nod for the #1 spot.
