Rough Riders announce Roster

The Cedar Rapids Rough Riders have announced their active roster for this season. A few key players including Rohrkremer are notably absent. Considering that Carlson traded several draft picks for him, I find this pretty surprising. I suppose the fans will just have to trust the coach and see where the season goes.

The roster is as follows:

GOALIES

Troy Grosenick (2009 team – RoughRiders)

Matt Hemingway (Alexandria – NAHL)

DEFENSEMEN

Bryce Aneloski (RoughRiders)

Steven Hensley (Detroit Central Catholic High School)

Andy Simpson (St. Louis AAA Blues)

Jared Beers (Kenai River – NAHL)

Thomas Mahoney (Thayer Academy, Mass.)

Mac Bennett (Hotchkiss Prep, Ct.)

Nolan Zajac (Winnipeg Thrashers, Canada)

FORWARDS

Stu Wilson (Maksymum Jr. B, N.Y.)

Eric Robinson (RoughRiders)

Stephen Collins (Green Mountain Glades, Vt.)

Jeff Costello (RoughRiders)

Peter Sakaris (College Charles Lemoyne/Quebec)

Derek Deblois (Hotchkiss Prep, Ct.)

Sam Warning (St. Louis Selects)

Chad Hudson (Wichita Falls – NAHL)

Zach Lehrke (RoughRiders)

Jordan DiGiando (Ohio AAA Blue Jackets)

Cason Hohmann (Compuware U-16, Mich.)
