Coaches Comments: We had high expectations for Ryker last fall and he achieved them with his all-state recognition. With his great speed, it makes him a true sideline-to-sideline linebacker. Besides his speed, Ryker is an incredibly hard worker in the weight room! Pound for pound is one of the strongest on the team. Finally, what stands out about Ryker is the physicality he plays on both sides of the ball.

On defense, when Ryker hits a ball carrier the run is typically over but, what people won’t notice is on offense. Yes, Ryker is an absolute homerun hitter when he gets the ball in his hands, but what he can do on an elite level is block when he does not have the ball. A true team player, that will do whatever he can for his team. (Princeton commit)
