Connor Riley-Lowe made around a dozen first-team appearances for Exeter City between 2014/15  and 2016/17 before having a good non-league career predominantly in the colours of Truro City. 

Connor, from Paignton, became a  member of the Grecians’ academy as an under-11 and became a scholar/trainee in 2012. At City he regularly captained the under-18 side before agreeing a professional contract in April 2014. He made his professional debut in a League Cup game against Bournemouth in August 2014 and his league debut against Hartlepool on 11 October 2014. Making three further first-team appearances in 2014/15, Connor spent time on loan at Truro City before returning to the City line-up during the first-half of  2016/17. He was released by the club in May 2017 and signed a permanent deal with Truro City on 4 August 2017.

Connor played three seasons for Truro City, and was twice player of the season before spending the COVID-interupted 2020/21 season with Bath City.  By 2021/22 Connor was back at Truro and was player of the year again. He continued with Truro in 2022/23 after making his 200th appearance for the Cornish club on 13 August 2022 and, at the end of the season, scored a 94th minute play-off final winner to secure Truro's promotion to National League South. 

This was topped in April 2025 when Conor skippered Truro to the National League South title.
