Plunging across the one-yard line last Saturday, University of Saskatchewan Huskies running back Ryker Frank etched his name firmly into the program’s record books, solidifying himself as one of the greatest rushers in Huskies history.
“They say iron sharpens iron,” said Frank. “Playing with the best just helps me get better every day.”
In the first quarter against the University of Regina Rams, the Huskies’ fourth-year running back recorded the 21st touchdown of his Canada West career which broke a 35-year mark set by Terry Eisler.
The record-setting touchdown helped the Huskies clinch their third victory in a row — 22-20 over the Rams — as well as secure a Canada West playoff spot for the program.
“I know there’s a lot of great running backs who have come through this program,” said Frank. “Obviously, Adam Machart was a senior when I got here. Just to be up there with those names is an honour.”
