T.J. Kelso:  T.J. is back for his second year as the starting runningback for the Raiders.  Last year, he was voted the Team Offensive MVP and was 1st Team All-Dogwood District.  This was the first year Kelso surpassed 1,000 yards rushing, and 10 touchdowns in a single season.  He is also receiving letters from top colleges weekly for basketball, track and football.
