Question
if i am 95.5 pounds in 8th grade what position should i be i am fast, and can cacth but i dont want to be a wide reciever

Answer
Zman, hello!

I can't say where you would best fit on the team without seeing you play.  You could be a great Defensive Back if you're fast.  You could be on the DL.  

At your age, you will be going through a growth spurt soon.  If you fill out, you could end up anywhere on the team.  If you do not want to be a Tight End or WR, then you might position yourself for the Defensive Line, (or Offensive Line if you keep growing).

Take care,
