Clarksville DT not short on athleticism

Related Topics: Clarksville

Clarksville sophomore defensive lineman Mike Powell is unknown to college recruiters, but that’s likely change in the near future.

Powell, 6-4, 298 pounds showed off his athleticism against Ozark on Friday with a 43-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-9.

“It’s reminisce of the fumblerooski, but it’s just like a quarterback sneak,” Clarksville coach Khris Buckner said. “We are asking him to do a lot of things from the backfield because he is so agile for his size.”

He has nine pancake blocks in 60 snaps as the blocking back and is a reason why the Panthers' offense is averaging 27.
