Santa Rosa County football players with the most speed on each team: PNJ Summer Series
There are many aspects to building a successful football team, but speed is an irreplaceable aspect.
Whether speed is used for a breakaway touchdown, closing in for a tackle or scrambling to make something out of nothing, it’s evident when a player brings elite speed to the gridiron.
“If you’ve got speed, you’ve got all the cards,” Milton head coach Harry Lees said. “You can get away with a lot more things when you have speed. If you don’t have speed, you’ve got to coach a lot harder.
