SAN ANTONIO -- Few freshmen are able to do what running back Gabe Angel (Lebanon, Tenn./Wilson Central) can do. Then again, few freshmen are built like the 6-foot-3, 216-pound running back.
Angel can bench press 250 pounds, and while he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.8 seconds at the U.S. Army National Combine on Friday, his personal-best time is 4.6 seconds.
Angel’s efforts at the combine made heads turn. During 1-on-1 drills, Angel made a beautiful, one-handed catch. He immediately followed that with another one-handed catch. All eyes were on the player wearing No. 404 in his first Army combine -- despite the fact that he’s only 15 years old.
