2010 Bobby Mills 1000 Yard Club  

 *This is the 36th season for the Bobby Mills 1000 Yard Club, a club that honors all the Nebraska high school running backs each year that rush for over 1000 yards in a season.  The club was established in 1975.  During the 36 year span, 2,763 running backs have reached the 1000 yard plateau.  

*This year’s list includes 92 backs: 67 are seniors, 18 juniors, 6 are sophomores & there is one freshman.
*Forty seven come from the 11-Man ranks, 40 are from 8-man and 5 come from 6-Man.
*Two backs reached the 5000 yard career rushing mark.  Zach Call from Mullen ran for 5,272 yards in a career stretching from 2007-2010. Call also is the only back on this year’s list to have 3 straight 1000 yard seasons.  Ryan Randall of Blair rushed for 5,282 yards in that same span and twice eclipsed the 2000 yard mark.  He was last year’s state rushing champ with 2,618.  

*Ravenna was the only school to have two runners surpass the thousand yard mark.
*Jacob Morrill of Creighton became only the 5th freshman in history to hit the 1000 yard mark. 

*Finally, the asterisk following the player’s name indicates he is a repeater from last season.
