High school football's all-time leading rusher and all-time touchdowns leader have both played in last decade, making it a golden age of sorts for running backs.

We set out to identify the 10 best beginning with the 2007 season through last fall.

During this span (2007-16) our Top 10 running backs combined for 18 state titles, 92,669 yards rushing and 1,515 total touchdowns.



Florida and Louisiana are the only two states to have multiple selections. Watch the video above to see if either of those states claimed the No. 1 spot.
