32: Dom Bragalone, senior runningback – Lehigh
It's hard to run out of things to say about Lehigh tailback Dom Bragalone. The rising senior was the Patriot League Offensive Player of the Year and a consensus First-Team All-American, among countless other honors.
Bragalone was once a celebrated high school recruit who set the Pennsylvania state record with more than 4,700 rushing yards in a single season. (No, that is not typo.) He wasted little time once he got to Lehigh, earning three straight First-Team All-Conference tabs and racking up 4,150 yards from scrimmage. And that's before his senior season.
Bragalone has been a finalist for the STATS FCS Freshman of the Year Award as well as the Walter Payton Award. He's the toast of the Patriot League and likely has a bright future ahead of him in the NFL. There's very little he won't accomplish.
