Roosevelt Rough Riders Hire New Offensive Line Coach
The Roosevelt Rough Riders, a Class 11AA program from Sioux Falls, have hired former Washington High School assistant coach, Ryan Thompson, as their new offensive line coach. The Rough Riders are looking to bounce back from a 4-5 record in 2025. Thompson's hiring is expected to boost recruiting efforts, particularly in the state's western region, where he has established strong relationships. The new coach's emphasis on developing a strong O-line will be crucial in the Rough Riders' quest for a state title. With Thompson at the helm, the Rough Riders are poised to compete with top programs in the state, including perennial powerhouses like O'Gorman and Lincoln. Roosevelt's coaching staff is now fully assembled ahead of August's training camp.
