The family of a Magnolia man missing since a boating accident early Saturday morning on Lake Conroe could do nothing more than wait while law enforcement officials looked Monday for any sign of the Sam Houston State University student.

Chad Austin Ryman, 23, was out with two friends on the lake when the boat they were on began sinking, according to Sgt. Randy Sanson, of the Montgomery County Precinct 1 Constable's Office Marine Patrol Division. Sanson said Montgomery County Central Dispatch received a 9-1-1 call from someone on the shore about the sinking boat just after 3 a.m. His officers responded along with crews from the North Montgomery County Fire Department.
"Deputies responded to the area known as Live Branch Creek, finding a 20-foot Larson Motorboat damaged, sinking and adrift in the area commonly known as the old League Line Marina," Sanson said.
"Deputies and firefighters were able to locate and secure two passengers from the vessel."
The pair was rescued and transported by ground ambulance to an area hospital, as the search continued for Ryman.
Searchers are utilizing a variety of methods and tools, including sonar equipment provided by Texas Equusearch.
Sanson said the names of the other two passengers were withheld Monday because the incident remained under investigation as officers continued to search and gather information.
A patterned search began soon after the crash, Sanson said, and was continuing as of late Monday afternoon.
"We'll continue searching until we find him," Sanson said.
Ryman's parents, Jeff and Cindy, and his older brother, Jeff Jr., were too distraught to talk on Monday, but, his aunt and uncle, Dana and Pamela Ryman, said the family was trying to remain hopeful.
"We don't know all of the details yet," Dana Ryman said. "We were told the boat ran into a bulkhead."
Chad Ryman graduated from Tomball High School in 2002 and is currently enrolled at Sam Houston State University. He is also employed part-time and plans to join the military.
Dana Ryman called his nephew an "amazing young man - very smart and very loving."
"He was about to enlist in the Air Force," Dana Ryman said. "He already made up his mind and was real excited. His main focus was the Air Force."
