tough, physical BYU back with a blue-collar edge
Semanoff was a high-school standout at Lehighton, where he earned all-state honors and once piled up 315 rushing yards and six touchdowns in a game, then brought that same physical, team-first mentality to BYU, where official profiles describe his love for the game’s contact and brotherhood. He projects as a rugged, high-effort runner who can help a roster with toughness, leadership, and a straight-ahead style rather than flashy open-field production, making him a fit for teams that value reliability, physicality, and locker-room buy-in.
