Nick Gerst
All-purpose back
Oradell (NJ) Bergen Catholic

Ht: 5-foot-8 (Event)
Wt: 169 lbs
Forty: 4.4 secs
Class: 2009 (High School)

2007 (Jr.) 150 -1,500-20 TD

That is a 10 YPC average against a tough level of competition here in Jersey and he also runs a 4.4 supposedly. Bergen Catholic is one of the football powerhouses here. They are almost always ranked in the top 10 teams in this densely populated state. Unfortunately being small and white might be too much for this kid to overcome in these dark days! Maybe he'll go to Chadron, add some weight and become the next Danny Woodhead! He looks like a scat back. He's heavier and faster than Jeremy Gallon (5'9 160 lbs.) who is in the Rivals 100 and is a H.S QB they are "projecting" can become a good RB.

Well at least Nick didn't fall that far, he ended up at FCS Ivy League school Columbia University, where he's still listed at RB

Midget afflete Tony Jones who played for Don Bosco is around the same size as this kid yet he was heavily recruited by Colorado and went to play for them. Had he been white he wouldn't have gotten a scholarship from Colorado.
