2h ago
Rush turned an 8-3 fourth quarter deficit into a 9-8 victory in its home opener.
Saskatchewan sports writer and columnist Rob Vanstone has joined the Roughriders in a new role.
He will now be the Senior Journalist and Roughrider Historian for the club.
Vanstone has spent the last 36 years with the Regina Leader Post where he covered local junior, University and Professional Sports.
According to the Riders, he shined a bright focus on the best and brightest athletes in the province.
“Rob Vanstone is a generational voice in the sports landscape of Saskatchewan, and his storytelling abilities paired with his knowledge of our football club and its history is unmatched,” said Roughriders President and CEO Craig Reynolds in a statement.
In his job he will be writing stories, features and columns about the Roughriders for Riderville.com and as the Historian Vanstone will log and record the history of the team.
“I am so honoured and flattered by this opportunity and simply cannot wait to begin telling Roughriders stories in a new capacity,” said Vanstone. “It feels as though I have been informally and unintentionally preparing for my second dream job since Mom started taking me to Roughriders games — while she was expecting me.”
His work on Riderville.com will start on Tuesday but, his first column about joining the club is already available.
