As a student at Dublin City University, Reck immediately became involved in hurling and joined the college's freshers' hurling team in his first year.

Reck first lined out for Wexford as a member of the minor team during the 2015 Leinster Championship. He made his first appearance for the team on 11 April when he came on as a substitute in a 2-13 to 0-17 defeat of Laois. [4]
Reck was eligible for the minor grade again during the 2016 Leinster Championship. He lined out at midfield in the Leinster final on 8 July 2012 and scored 0-03 in the 2-12 to 0-12 defeat by Dublin. [5]
Reck was drafted onto the Wexford under-21 team in advance of the 2018 Leinster Championship. He made his first appearance in that grade on 20 June 2018 when he lined out at centre-back in Wexford's 3-15 to 3-12 defeat of Dublin. [6] Reck retained his position at centre-back for the 4-21 to 2-26 extra-time defeat by Galway in the Leinster final on 4 July 2018. [7]
Reck was added to the Wexford senior team prior to the start of the 2017 National League. He made his first appearance for the team on 5 March 2017 when he lined out at right wing-back in a 3-18 to 0-12 defeat of Kerry. [8] On 2 July 2017, Reck was an unused substitute when Wexford suffered a 0-29 to 1-17 defeat by Galway in the Leinster final. [9]
On 20 January 2018, Reck was named amongst the substitutes when Wexford faced Kilkenny in the Walsh Cup final. He was introduced as a half-time substitute in the 1-24 apiece draw. Wexford won the subsequent free-taking shoot-out, with Reck claiming his first silverware at senior level with Wexford. [10] He made his Leinster Championship debut on 20 May 2018 in a 0-22 to 2-14 defeat of Dublin. [11]
Wexford reached a second Leinster final in three years on 30 June 2019. Reck was an unused substitute throughout the game but collected a winners' medal following the 1-23 to 0-23 defeat of Kilkenny. [12]
