Roughriders fall to Garden County in State Title Game KEARNEY - After a scoreless first quarter in Friday night’s Class D6 State Championship Game, the Southwest Roughriders’ year-long journey of overcoming each and every obstacle along the way stumbled into quicksand.

The results of the 2025 D1-9 All-District Football Team were announced last week. They are: 1st Team Offense: Quarterback: Dante Homer, Dundy County-Stratton Running Back: Mason Giebler, North Platte St.

But Southwest didn’t travel to Kearney for a coronation. Like they have all season, the Roughriders battled.

RED CLOUD - Coming into Friday’s D6 semifinals, the Red Cloud Warriors had scored 61 points per game (not counting a forfeit) in rolling to a 10-0 record. Virtually unstopped all season, the Warriors put their offense on the field first in Friday’s contest against Southwest.

Southwest’s upcoming opponent in the Class D6 State Championship Game has left the same impression on a number of people that have watched them and played them, including Medicine Valley Coach Scott Trimble.
