Sure, heâs a sophomore, but he rushed for 2,023 yards and scored 26 touchdowns on a run-centric team that reached the state championship game. Some context: The top five running backs of Tucsonâs last 40 years didnât gain close to 2,000 yards as a sophomore. CDOâs KaâDeem Carey had 898; Mountain Viewâs Kevin Schmidtke hit 2,000 as a junior; Amphiâs Mario Bates had 1,096 as a sophomore; Amphiâs Michael Bates never gained 2,000 in a season; and Sunnysideâs Fred Sims had 2,010 as a senior in 1980, the first Tucsonan ever to gain 2,000 in a season.
Plus, Robinson did this in a game:Â
