JEFFERSON CITY, Tenn. – Carson-Newman's football program has introduced a weightlifting and speed record chart.
The concept is the brain child of assistant coach Zack Fleming. The chart is current from Carson-Newman's spring workouts and practices.
Carson-Newman has always had speed to burn in the backfield, but the record holder for fastest player actually comes from the defensive backfield. Jason Williams – also a sprinter for the track team – turned in a 4.38-second 40-yard dash.
Cassadine Blassingame – another track star – and return specialist TraShaun Ward weren't far behind at 4.39 and 4.42 seconds, respectively. In the frightfully fast department, there's first team all-conference defensive end Javaris Neal, who runs a 4.52 40.
Pound-for-pound, the strongest Eagle is Kyler Fry – C-N's second leading special team's tackler from a year ago. Fry has a power ratio of 4.31, which adds bench and squat maxes and divides by the player's body weight. In terms of pure brute strength, defensive tackle David Way takes the cake in bench press with a 425-pound max. Incoming running back Rob McWright can power up 415 pounds (and run a 4.47 40 to boot).
For the squat, the attention turns to the offensive line where Robby Ignagni can handle 600 pounds. Sophomore Dan Gallman can handle 590.
The chart, dubbed "The Eagle Elite" will be featured in the 2014 edition of the Carson-Newman football media guide.
