2024 Outlook: A new era has begun under Coach Henrich and his staff. They look forward to seeing how this young Rough Ridder squad progresses throughout the year. The Roughs lost many key players but are confident there is enough returning experience combined with the newcomers to make a run at the District XI Playoffs. With another new conference alignment, the schedule will present many challenges.
