Taking a look at what Dallan Hayden brings to Ohio State’s 2022 recruiting class. “The biggest thing is his toughness. He’s durable, he can run in between the tackles, circle the defense when he needs to or cut the ball back and expose people." https://t.co/tJdX78sZoI

HAYDEN PARTNERS WITH COLUMBUS CHARITY
Ohio State 2022 running back commit Dallan Hayden has done something pretty cool.

The Christian Brothers (Memphis Tennessee) standout has dedicated his final prep season to raising money to help combat illiteracy through Memphis-based Coaching for Literacy, an organization that raises awareness about illiteracy and provides grants to literacy programs across the country, and its partner, Columbus-based 2nd & 7 foundation, which helps tackle illiteracy in Central Ohio.

This is the second year Hayden will be participating, as the running back raised $20,000 in his junior season. Hayden is requesting pledges of $5.87 for every touchdown he scores this season, in honor of the 587 miles that separates Memphis and Columbus. If you would like to pledge, you can here.

“Education is key to success, in the classroom, on the field and in life,” Hayden said in a news release. “Reading is the foundation of our education, and too many students across the country miss out on these skills needed to compete in life. My goal, with every touchdown I score, is to both inspire other people and help more kids learn to read.”

So far, Hayden has raised $2,325 of his $20,000 goal.

 

Memphis (Tenn.) Christian Brothers lost to Nashville (Tenn.) Ensworth 45-19, but running back Dallan Hayden had a huge game. Hayden rushed for 246 yards on 26 carries and had three touchdowns.
