"I am grateful for the work of five Father Judge High School football alums who assisted me in evaluating a strong pool of candidates to fill the role of head football coach at Father Judge High School. We are proud to announce school president, Brian Patrick King has accepted the recommendation of our committee and Ryan Nase ’02 will prepare our team for the 2025 football season. I am excited to welcome Ryan and his wife Katie back to 3301 Solly Avenue. I look forward to watching their children CJ, Kalynn, & Carly grow during Ryan’s time as the leader of our football program. Throughout the hiring process, Coach Nase impressed the committee with his vision to lead the program and his passion for creating the best student-athlete experience for current and future Crusaders. He has enjoyed success as a player, an assistant coach, and a head football coach. I have faith in Ryan’s ability to motivate young men and know that his football staff will work tirelessly to assist our football players in reaching their full potential."
