Congratulations to Anthony Cangiano, the 2025 29 Club Award recipient! Presented annually, this award honors a player who exemplifies excellence on and off the field through athletic performance, leadership, academic achievement, and by serving as a role model for our program.

These members of the @ths_raidersfb program were honored tonight during the school Academics Awards presentation. These young men truly epitomize what it means to be a student-athlete. Congratulations on your hard work. It certainly paid off. (Joey Daniel is not pictured)

We unveiled our new @ths_raidersfb black jerseys today. Needless to say, the guys were excited.

2 weeks out from post opp, taking it one day one step one milestone at a time. The best way to eat an elephant 🐘 is one bite at a time. Happy holidays.

Hoping the documenting of my injury will help another athlete, if they find themselves in my situation. The journey will be long and trying mentally and physically. But not finished just a hurdle to work through. Stay hungry dream big. #mobilitywork

One of the underrated coaches being up in the Northern part of the state. @ths_raidersfb Coach Rodriguez is as much a stellar great as he is a human being and a man.

Fantastic role model for #cthsfb youth.
