Preist Ryan

This year at Howard College was a blessing I never expected. JUCO wasn’t part of my original plan, but it turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life. I had the chance to grow in a completely different basketball environment,one that taught me toughness, humility, and hunger. Playing with guys who gave everything every single day made me stronger, both mentally and physically. To my coaches and teammates: I appreciate you all more than I can say. Thank you for pushing me, trusting me, and sharing this journey with me. I wish you nothing but happiness, success, and blessings in your lives and careers. A special thank you to Sherry and Mark Lindsey for everything you’ve done for me this year, your support meant a lot. Also, thank you to @JucoRecruiting , @JUCOadvocate , @JC4PT, for the exposure and visibility you bring to JUCO players. Coming from France, I’m not used to this kind of attention on social media. Your work is amazing, and I’m truly grateful for it. I’m leaving Howard College with great memories, real lessons, and deep respect for everyone I met. Now it’s time for the next chapter… Extremely excited to join Oregon State and compete at the highest level. Can’t wait to get to work! 🦫🔥 #jucoproduct #HawksFlyTogether #GoBeavs
