What small schools (3a-2a) do an outstanding job of inside and outside zone blocking?

can't think of many right off the top of my head. A lot of programs have gotten away from the zone blocking scheme because of reading defenses. Becasue of this there are a lot more pulling gaurds these days. That why when you see one of the smaller linemen starting at gaurd, especially on the weak side, he is there just for the purpose of pulling. This allows the line to get away from the zone and do more down blocking which is tons easier to get around.

I remember two seasons ago when we played Manor in the playoffs that is all they did. And if you over pursue on the just flow the running back would just cut it back. Which he on one play and scored from about 55 yards out.
