where im from, if your 5'5 and run a 5.2 40 and bench 110, your sitting in the stands watching the game on friday night. u need to get the 40 time down to at least 4.6. no coach wants a slow short kid on the field.

maybe linebacker. I don't think your fast or tall enough to be a wide reciever or somthing. Plus if you can bench 110, your strong. I was a sucessful wide reciever freshman year. I ran a 4.9 5ft.10, but i could only bench like 90. I was also a backup QB, trust me i could throw 15 yards farther than the starter on JV, and it accuracy is more important

Your coach will put you where he thinks is best. Maybe you should start out at Receiver on O and Cornerback on D. Always work on your catching and footwork no matter what position you play. Practice playing as low to the ground as possible. The lower man has the leverage and usually wins in a football battle. Stay low, quick footed and intense and you should be fine.

Judging by what u have down, I would have to say you would make a great running back. Your size can help a lot. Also you could make a good safety. That would depend on how skilled you are at coverage and reading the field. Also a good vertical jump could help with that. Personally I think halfback would be the best position judging by your statistics. Well anyway good luck next year.

People, the kid is 14. READ you stupid people. You should play Cornerback or even RB if you can bulk up a bit.

Personally I perfered Defense when I played. you didn't give your weight so with the information given I would have to say line backer.Work on your speed,get your strenght up,nothing
more important than being in the best physical shape. And most of all when you play,play with heart and have fun.
