Don Roberts knew it would take time for his Ringgold team to come together this season.

The Rams won the state championship a year ago, but five starters graduated from that squad.

Naturally, it would take time, an acclimation period to break in the new starters. But it seems that the acclimation period might be nearing its end.

After dropping two non-conference games to start the season, Ringgold has now won consecutive games, its latest a 7-0 win over McKeesport on Wednesday.
