CARL WEST
Running Back
1978 / 1982
MacClenny, FL
Biography
West worked as a backup fullback in 1979 and split time there in 1980 but had one of the big plays of the year when he broke loose for an 84-yard touchdown run in a win over Pacific. He also had touchdown runs of 58 yards (vs. Cincinnati) and 39 yards (against Georgia) that season. West began the 1981 season as the starting fullback, but suffered a knee injury in the second game of the year that wiped out the rest of the season. He split time with Dominique Blasingame at fullback as a senior, scoring on touchdown passes against Pacific and Furman. He took over as head coach at Baker County, his alma mater, in 1998 and led the team through 2005. At the time of his retirement from coaching he had the most seasons reaching the playoffs in Baker County history (3) and coached one of only two playoff wins in school history. He was also the head coach at Baldwin High School in Baldwin, Florida.
