Scouting Journals for Gavin Sawchuk

A one-cut vertical runner with long speed. Displays patience on and then bursts to daylight on senior video. Shows good feet in the hole to make backfield disruptors miss. Best as an outside runner and is comfortable working to his left. Not going to be a between-the-tackles power back. Does not have a large frame and could top out somewhere around 5-foot-11, 200-pounds. Catches the ball with arms extended, and soft hands. Could spend time in the slot at the next level. Has sub-11.0 second speed in the 100 meters, which is evident as a senior. Has been highly productive over his high school career with over 5,000 rushing yards and 80 touchdowns.
