Great football season owes much to Rob Williams

As we near Thanksgiving, I hope the Raider Nation will join me in being thankful for the vision and passion Rob Williams had for starting the Lake Roosevelt youth football program 11 or so years ago.

Many of the players on this year’s team had the opportunity to grow up playing football and getting better because Rob wouldn’t take no for an answer when pursuing his passion to create a youth football program in the Coulee that would be safe, fun, and make kids better people and players. Although it has been 10 years since we lost Rob, it is awesome to see his legacy live on and expand as the Raiders earn wins of historic proportion this season.

Congratulations to all the players and coaches on an amazing season, and thank you, Rob, for getting the ball rolling!
