Words from his defensive coach Malcom West : Ryan Creegan is a player that offensive coordinators have a hard time game planning for, he’s a player that I will take to war with me any day of the week. He shows up everyday and consistently works the best to his ability and tries to make everyone better every time he steps foot on the field. He wears his heart on his sleeve with emotions sometimes but it is in his competitive nature, this is what drives him every day to be great. This young man speeds the game up to his capability every Friday night. Any coach would love to have a player like Ryan due to his great leadership, high football IQ and constant motor every down.
