Bedford receiver joins OUA team’s 2015 class.
Queen’s Gaels recently announced the addition of Ryan Keays to their football program.
The 6’1, 190 pound receiver from Bedford, Nova Scotia will join the team for the 2015 OUA season.
Keays has played for Saint Andrew’s College Saints of the Conference Independent School Athletic Association (CISAA), Charles P Allen Cheetahs of the Nova Scotia Student Athletic Federation Football League (NSSAFFL) and Bedford Saints.
During his time with the Cheetahs, the receiver was selected as a NSSAFFL Nova Division First Team All-Star.
“Ryan Keays is a very polished receiver and has all the skills we are looking for in this next generation of receivers at Queen’s,” commented Gaels Head Coach Pat Sheahan. “He has good speed and body control, runs very good routes and plays the game with passion and intelligence.”
“He has big play ability and thrives on playing under pressure. Ryan was a product of CP Allen High School in Bedford, Nova Scotia and was also a standout at St. Andrew’s College in Aurora. He is 90 plus percent student who will be enrolling in the Queen’s a School of Business this fall. He will be one of a very impressive group of Haligonians who will be wearing tri-colour this year!”
With his commitment, Keays is the third Nova Scotia recruit to join the Gaels. Earlier this year, former Citadel Phoenix teammates Connor Gascoigne (defensive back) and Ian Farrell (receiver) signed with the OUA team.
