It is difficult to step away from a job you love.
Nonetheless, that is the position Crawfordsville football coach Rex Ryker has
found himself in. Ryker has resigned as the head coach of the Athenians to
pursue an administrative position.
He will be remembered as the man who resurrected Athenian
football. Crawfordsville had won only seven games in eight seasons before Ricer’s
arrival in 2003. The Athenians have since established themselves as a force
within the Sagamore Conference. Ryker led Crawfordsville to seven win seasons
twice in his tenure at the school, in 2005 and again in 2007.
