Albert Young of Moorestown High School is one of the best running back prospects in the state of New Jersey. At 5-10, 205 pounds, he has rushed for over 1,900 yards and 30 touchdowns this season with one regular season game remaining.

Young is being heavily recruited by many schools, although most of the schools in the hunt are holding off on officially offering him a scholarship until he qualifies for freshmen eligibility. One school, however, has offered early and thus has become his leader.

“Wisconsin is my leader, and the other schools will have to beat them out,” said Young, who, after an outstanding first quarter, is on track to fully qualify. “They offered me early. They had confidence in my grades. My first quarter [performance] proves them right. I also like Boston College, Iowa, Virginia, Penn State, Miami, Syracuse, and Rutgers.”

Most of these schools (including Virginia) are “waiting to see my grades, which is why Wisconsin leads.”
