Athlete of the Week: Ethan Ryan

Print Story | Email Story
Senior Ethan Ryan makes running the football look easy.  So when his Mountie team stuggles to get their offense going, they know just what to do, give him the ball.  This week in a rematch of last year's Div. 3 Super Bowl, Ryan exploded for 232 yards of rushing and added four touchdowns to give his team their 31st consecutive win, 34-14 over Lee.  Greylock's 31st victory tied them with the 1978-81 Hoosac Valley team for the longest unbeaten streak in Berkshire County history.

Ryan has been a critical cog in the Mount Greylock offense over the past two years, serving as the team's workhorse back.  This year he has been absolutely unstoppable, amassing 704 rushing yards in just five games.  That means that he is averaging an absurd 140 yards per game to go along with a whopping 9.1 yards per carry.  To go along with his amazing rushing numbers, Ryan already has 14 touchdowns on the season.  With such an outstanding running back, Mount Greylock looks to make another run at a Div. 3 Super Bowl championship.
