Jordan White: Irish Running Back Making Waves in NYSPHSAA
Jordan White's impressive 2023 summer camp performance, where he averaged 4.8 yards per carry in a 7-on-7 drill, has turned heads in the NYSPHSAA AA ranks. The transfer from out-of-state, Class of 2026 running back has seamlessly adapted to his new team, the Aquinas Institute Little Irish. In a brief span, White has earned a starting role, showcasing his versatility and athleticism. His ability to make defenders miss in the open field has been a key factor in his rapid ascension. As a newcomer to the NYSPHSAA, White's performance will be closely monitored by college scouts, particularly those from the FCS and Division II ranks. What scouts are watching for is how White adapts to the physicality of AA-level competition and whether he can maintain his impressive summer camp form into the regular season. His ability to read blocks and find holes in the defense will be crucial in determining his success at the next level.
