Running back Ryland Leichert of the Regina Thunder has been one of the most dangerous weapons in the CJFL for the past three seasons. Last year he was named a Prairie Conference All-Star hitting the 1000 yard plateau for the first time rushing for 1017 yards on 152 carries and scored eight touchdowns. 

In his three CJFL seasons to date he has rushed for 2239 yards and scored 16 rushing touchdowns. 

Now entering his fourth campaign, Leichert will no doubt continue to pound the ground in Regina leading his team offensively when they open their season on August 11 on the road in Winnipeg. 

He shares his Football Story with Ryan Watters discussing how he fell in love with the game and tells us about his most memorable play in his CJFL career to date.
