ISAIAH CRAWFORD, TB
5-10, 190, Fr., RS
Vista, Calif. (Vista)
AT COLORADO: This Season (Soph.)—Enters the fall listed second
at tailback. He had a productive spring (77 yards and a touchdown
in the three main scrimmages), and will figure prominently into the
rotation this season.
2003 (Fr.)—Redshirted; did not see any game action. He came in
with the original thought in mind that he’d probably wind up at
safety, but impressed the coaches from the get-go at tailback. He was
twice honored as the Scout Team Offense Award winner for his
efforts in practice for the UCLA and Baylor games.
HIGH SCHOOL—As a senior, he earned first-team all-region and all-
Palomar League honors at linebacker, and was second-team at
running back. He was second-team all-league on defense as a junior
and honorable all-league on offense as a sophomore. As a senior
playing mostly outside linebacker, he was in on 79 tackles (70 solo),
with 13 for losses and three sacks and a forced fumble. He knocked
down 20 passes and had 30 quarterback pressures. On offense, he
rushed 132 times for 700 yards and 13 touchdowns, and caught four
passes for 76 yards and a score. He had two kick returns on the year,
returning both for TDs (a 74-yard punt return and a 99-yard kickoff
return). As a junior, also at OLB, he made 40 tackles (34 solo), with
16 for losses and seven sacks, to go with two forced fumbles, three
recoveries, 13 hurries, 15 passes broken up and a blocked punt. He
gained 683 yards with 8 TDs on offense (97 carries), following up his
sophomore year when he had 50 rushes for 438 yards and five
scores. (He had 279 career rushes for 1,821 yards, 6.5 per attempt,
with 26 touchdowns.) Top career games included a smorgasbord
effort in a win over Bonita Vista as a senior, when he rushed 13 times
for 120 yards and two scores, returned a punt 74 yards for a third TD,
and had nine tackles, two for losses including a sack, a forced fumble
and three pass deflections. In a 49-0 win over San Marcos, in just
over a half of action, he had 22 rushes for 199 yards and two scores,
with seven tackles and two sacks on defense. Vista was 10-3 his
senior year and 11-2 his junior year, winning the Palomar League title
both years under coach Chris Hauser; VHS was the Southern CIF
champ in 2001 and the runner-up in 2002. He also lettered twice in
track in sprints (bests of 11.3 in the 100 and 23.0 in the 200) and
jumps (6-1 high jump best), and played basketball (shooting guard).
ACADEMICS—He is undecided on his major at CU, but is interested
in business or architecture. A two-time San Diego Union-Tribune
scholar-athlete award winner (an in-season award for balancing academics
and football).
PERSONAL—He was born February 26, 1985 in San Diego, Calif. His
hobbies include reading, lifting weights and playing video games. He
was active in community service in high school, as he was a member
of a group that traveled to local high schools that put on skits to
warn against the dangers of drunk driving.

PAUL CREIGHTON, FB
6-5, 245, Soph., 1L
Niwot, Colo. (Niwot)
AT COLORADO: This Season (Soph.)—He enters the fall listed third
at fullback. He switched to the position for spring practice, and
adapted very well to the change. Primarily used as a blocker in drills,
he did catch one pass (for 2 yards) in the spring game.
2003 (Fr.-RS)—He saw action in 11 games (no starts), mostly on special
teams though he played occasionally in several games at tight
end. He had two special team points on the year, on the strength of
one knockdown block and one wedge break.
2002 (Fr.)—Redshirted; did not see any action but practiced all year
at tight end. He earned the Scout Team Offense Award for the Big 12
Championship game against Oklahoma. He joined the team as a
recruited walk-on prior to August drills, and was placed on scholarship
for the spring semester (he was originally going to enroll in
January, but was invited into camp when a space opened for him).
HIGH SCHOOL—He lettered three times in football, playing both
tight end and defensive end. He garnered all-state honors as a senior,
as he set school records for all-time receiving yards and sacks in a
season (20 1 /2). He had 33 catches for over 800 yards and eight touchdowns
on offense as a senior, with 100 total tackles, 20 quarterback
sacks, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and three pass
deflections. His top games included a win over Sterling as a senior,
when he had nine tackles and four sacks, one being the game-saver.
Against Valley, he reeled in six catches for 180 yards and two touchdowns,
while his top high school moment came against Steamboat
Springs in the 2001 state playoffs, as Niwot won after a tough a goal
line stand. Niwot was 9-3 his senior year under new coach Ron
Tesone, 3-7 his junior year and 2-8 during his sophomore season
(when he played offensive guard). He lettered four years in basketball
at forward, as he exited as Niwot’s all-time leading scorer and
blocked shot leader, earning honorable mention all-state honors as
a senior. He also lettered three times in outdoor track, and was an allconference
and all-region selection in the 110-meter hurdles.
ACADEMICS—He is majoring in psychology at Colorado.
PERSONAL—Born July 22, 1983 in Tecumseh, Neb. Hobbies include
snowboarding, fishing, playing basketball and most outdoor activities.
