Here are the area’s rushing leaders for the 2018 football season.
A player had to have at least 1,000 yards rushing to make this list.
We compiled this list by contacting coaches and getting numbers for area players. If you know of a player who is missing, please email me at cparker@ky3.com. We will add them after confirming numbers with their coach.
