Regarding Seattle, Creighton did apparently spend some time growing up in the Pacific Northwest. An earlier version of this article claimed he was from Seattle, but the discovery of sources regarding San Francisco and the Oakland Raiders ruled that out. An article in the Des Moines Register from 2010 talks about Creighton's experiences climbing Mount Rainier, Mount Hood, and Kings Peak when he was "growing up".[1] It's not clear when this was, so there's some kind of Seattle/PNW connection.

There's a handful of newspaper articles from 1985–86 in the Seattle area that mention a football quarterback named Chris Creighton who played for Roosevelt High School, but nothing saying where he went for college. A few entries also mention him playing soccer. SounderBruce 04:54, 3 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Reference #2 doesn't say his family moved to Seattle
It's a reasonable inference, given that his early life was in San Francisco but that he played high school football in Seattle. Mackensen(talk) 22:45, 19 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
In 1989 Kenyon won a share of the North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) title, Kenyon's first and As of 2020 only conference championship. Why is As of capitalized?
Maybe? It appears the proper name is "Kenyon Athletic Hall of Fame" (see [1]), so I think in the current usage it wouldn't be capitalized. Mackensen(talk) 21:45, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Coaching career
Concordia and Sweden
Is there any more information on Concordia? (which I at first assumed was Concordia University lol).
Probably not. Coordinators don't get much coverage at that level. I can take another look. Mackensen(talk) 21:40, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I think it is interesting he was hired via phone without being seen (per ref 8) especially for the time period. Could this be added in?
Seeing as he spent four years here, could this not be expanded a bit more?
See above regarding Concordia. I've actually visited Manchester's campus; it's pretty but it's small and not near much of anything. I'll look again. Mackensen(talk) 21:41, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
won their first NCAC title, finished undefeated for the first time since 1982, and made the playoffs for the first time since 1977 does this have to be in quotes? Is there not another way to reword this?
English had gone 11–46 over the past five seasons. In his first two seasons, Creighton won only three games can these be combined into one sentence such as English had gone 11–46 over the past five seasons and Creighton won only three games in his first two seasons.
Joined with a semicolon. I think it works. Mackensen(talk) 21:42, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
* @HickoryOughtShirt?4: you're welcome and thank you for undertaking the review. I've addressed all the copyediting stuff, but let me take a few hours to see if I can dig anything further up on Concordia and Manchester. Mackensen(talk) 21:47, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Mackensen, I got sick of the US Debate and decided to check into Wikipedia. I am happy witht the changes and am passing this article. Congrats! HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:11, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
