ROCK SPRINGS — After taking a step backward in the win column in 2025, the Rock Springs Tigers believe they have the foundation in place to compete for a playoff berth this fall. Head coach Kasey Koepplin enters his third season leading the program as Rock Springs prepares to open official fall practice Monday, Aug. 10. Rock Springs fielded one of Class 4A’s top defenses throughout the season, consistently keeping games within reach against some of Wyoming’s best teams. Rock Springs returns plenty of experience in key areas, particularly at linebacker. Rock Springs held the defending champions scoreless over the final three quarters before falling 14-6.
