TexasFootball.com Team to Watch: Leander Rouse

Heading into the 2020 season, Leander Rouse coach Joshua Mann had a hunch his team could reverse a recent run that’s seen the Raiders post just one winning season since 2013. But did he foresee the outright district championship his team locked up last Thursday?

“If you had told me that with COVID and everything we’ve been through that we would have played every week, qualified for the playoffs and locked up the district championship with one more game to play…I’d be lying if I thought that was possible,” he said. “I thought we were a playoff-caliber team.”
