Moyd is a player
HIGH SCHOOL—As a senior, he was an honorable mention All-Dade County selection as he carried the ball 160 times for over 900 yards and 10 touchdowns. His junior season, he had 90 rushes for 770 yards and five touchdowns. Some of his top prep games include a win against Miami Jackson in his junior year when he rushed 16 times for 223 yards and two touchdowns. Later that season against South Plantation in the first round of the playoffs, he rushed 17 times for 173 yards and one touchdown, as Northwestern prevailed 35-7. In his senior campaign, he ran wild against South Plantation again, as he had 20 carries for 150 yards and two touchdowns in a 28-14 win. Under coach Roland Smith, Northwestern was 7-4 his senior season, losing in the first round of the state playoffs, 12-1 his junior year, losing in the state regional finals and 10-4 his sophomore season. A three-time all-Dade Country performer and four time letterman in track, he ran the 4x400 and 4x800-meter relays, the 300-meter hurdles (38.0 best) and competed in the long jump (23-0). His 4x800 relay team won the conference championship his freshman through senior years, and the track teams were the state champs in 2003 and runner-ups in 2004.
Northwestern Head Coach Roland Smith says of Moyd, "He’s been a guy who has been a difference maker on the field. He’s a speedster. He runs track. He’s a hurdler, and he’s a very fast, powerful runner. Anytime he gets the ball in his hands he can take it to the house, from anywhere on the field. If you give it to him on the draw and do a good job of blocking, he’s a guy that if he gets in the open field, no one is going to catch him. I’ve seen some guys, some track guys, that tried to get an angle but couldn’t get him. He’s got that long stride where it looks like he’s not moving, but he can run. And he’s a very powerful runner. He’s the type of runner where the more he carries the ball, the more he pounds on you, the more you don’t want to tackle him. It’s like he’s punishing you more than you’re punishing him. He delivers the blow instead of taking the blow."
