Cedar Rapids Changes Name to RoughRiders

CEDAR RAPIDS — Fri, Sep 25: The Cedar Rapids Mustangs are excited to announce that their team name has changed to the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders. The change signals a new partnership between Cedar Rapids high school hockey and the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders United States Hockey League team.

The goal of this partnership is to bring both organizations under the RoughRiders name to unify the programs in purpose, and to promote hockey at all levels in Cedar Rapids.

The RoughRiders High School Hockey Team will wear the same logo and colors as the USHL team.

This presents an incredible opportunity for all hockey players in the Cedar Rapids area. The level of commitment shown by the new RoughRiders owners to all hockey players in Cedar Rapids is unprecedented and Cedar Rapids High School Hockey looks forward to a long and successful relationship.
