Last week the 2026 season came to a close for our teams. We want to take a moment to thank everyone for a great summer of baseball!
We want to specifically thank our 3 seniors and 2 super-seniors for the Roughriders for their hard work and dedication over the past few years to the program. This group has had an immense impact to the program, especially to our younger players who got their first taste at the Legion level and what it takes to compete at a high level. Multiple players who are departing our program will be continuing to play collegiate athletics to some degree ranging from college baseball, to club baseball, as well as college basketball.
We also want to thank Rod Kleinjan, Jim Dahl, Triston Stuhr, and the staff of KDIX Radio 1230 AM 100.7 FM - Dickinson, ND for airing our games throughout the summer. From the late nights at the ballpark, to the long bus rides home we know KDIX will be there and have our games on the airwaves!
We also want to thank Consolidated Telcom for the live coverage of games on Consolidated Channel 18 throughout the summer. They have spent many hours at the ballpark and we appreciate all the coverage they provide during the spring and summer!
We also want to thank Melvin Hanel for driving the bus and transporting the guys throughout the summer! Mel goes above and beyond to get the Roughriders to and from our destination safely and make the bus rides fun and enjoyable for our players and coaching staff!
We also want to take a moment to thank everyone who helped out during the Class A West Region Tournament that took place in late July. Everyone that pitched a hand big or small made the tournament run as smoothly as it possibly could have!
We also congratulate our Legion A and Babe Ruth teams on their respective runs they made at the region/state tournaments and look forward for to seeing them continue to improve in the years ahead!
Finally we want to thank all the coaches, parents, fans, and followers for your dedication and support to the guys all summer long!
Thank you again for all the support and we hope to see everyone back at the ballpark in April!
