Bio

2017: Stepped into a prominent roll in the running game for the Eagles in 2017 after injuries to opening-day starters Antonio Wimbus and Marcus Williams. The man affectionately known as Steak Sauce finished the year fourth on the team in rushing with 294 yards on 56 carries.  He found the endzone twice.  Saulsberry's coming out party came against Catawba in week five when he tallied a career-high 86 yards on 17 carries.  He also found the end zone onf a career-lone 39-yard run.  Saulsberry scored his other touchdown the week prior against Newberry. He averaged 29.4 yards per game on the ground.  

2016: Saw spot duty at running back across eight games for C-N.  He carried the ball five times for 24 yards and had a touchdown run.  The score came against Brevard (10/8). He registered carries against the Tornados, Mars hill (9/24) and Saint Augustine's (9/10). 

2015: Did not appear in any games.

High School: Second-team All-Region for the Wildcats... Also played baseball... Coached by Welton Coffey.

Personal: Son of Shelly Ortiz.
