Savon Huggins excels on and off field


Saint Peter's Prep running back Savon Huggins is known for his ability to break tackles. It's ironic, then, that he nearly gave up football because of his fear of contact. "I played flag [football] at the age of six," he says. "Then I played tackle, and I didn't like it so I quit." Since returning to the sport, Huggins has been anything but timid out of the backfield. His physical play has energized a dominant Saint Peter's Prep offense, and his 1,535 rushing yards and 31 touchdowns have propelled the team to an 8-1 record. (Sports Illustrated)
