ROANOKE RAPIDS — Roanoke Rapids U10 Head coach Earl Wheeler got right to the point when asked about his team as they head to the district tournament “These are the hardest working 10-year-olds I have seen in a while,” the coach pointed out. “Their  work ethic is unbelievable. These guys have worked six days a week, for three straight weeks in preparation for the upcoming tournament.”
