The RSHS softball game was originally scheduled for Saturday at 11:30 a.m., but was moved to Thursday around 5 p.m. due to Cody's early arrival to avoid any weather disruptions this weekend.
In Friday's softball games, Rock Springs will begin its conference varsity game against Worland at 3:30 p.m., while Green River will host a conference game against Cody until 2:30 p.m.
On Saturday, Green River plays Worland at 11:30 a.m.
This is Cody and Worland's first taste of conference softball this year. In this year's conference, Rock Springs went 2-0 and Green River went 1-1.
Both conference games on Friday will be live-streamed by TRN Media. The live stream will be available on The Radio Network's Facebook page and TRN Sports' YouTube.
Green River High School sports coverage is brought to you by the following great sponsors:
As for soccer, there is only one event this weekend, with the Rock Springs Tigers scheduled to take on Riverton. The men's game begins at 3 p.m., and the women's game begins immediately thereafter. Rock Springs has 2 wins and 1 loss in conference play this year for both the boys and girls. For Riverton, both teams are undefeated in conference play this year, with one win for the boys and one tie for the girls.
TRN Media reached out to RSHS girls soccer coach Braxton Rosette to ask about the team, which is 4-1 overall so far this year.
I think this team plays very well together. They are very selfish and feed off of each other's success. They work hard and encourage each other to get better every day. They are a great group of kids.
