Rouse made it in 2021 with a wild run to State after finishing 4th in district. In 2024 Rouse dominated on the way to the State Semi final before losing in heart breaking fashion on the last play of the game.
2025 will see the Raiders come into the season with a bunch of new faces, but the work is being done to once again see Rouse hopefully make a run at another State Tournament. Rouse has been in the rankings almost every week the past 8 years and they have finished in the Final 8 Teams 3x out of the past 4 years.
