Meet the Board

President - Jenn Willford
My family has been a part of RPBA for, well I'm not exactly sure! We moved out here when Hagen was going into 3rd and he is a Senior now! So I guess this will be my 10th year! My oldest Olivia played softball, Hagen & Levi played baseball, & Brynn still plays softball. I was your former VP of Softball and I've also coached for the past 4 or 5 years. You have probably seen me at the fields running around between concession stands, trying my best at chalking straight lines, cheering on kiddos, or my kiddos as they took on umpiring this year! I look forward to a fantastic 2025 season!

Vice President of Softball - Ed King

I'm stoked to be this year's VP of softball! I've been directly involved with the RPBA as a coach for the last 4 years (2 t-ball, 2-softball) and have volunteered to umpire the last couple years as well. My wife Daisy and I also had 2 boys that played for RPBA all the way through the league, from t-ball-14u, and who are now in high school. I'm excited for this opportunity and hope to continue the long tradition that the RPBA has represented in our beloved community!

Vice President of Baseball - Abby Manges

I am very excited to be a big part of RPBA and baseball in general as your new VP of Baseball for the program. I’ve been a coach for T-Ball teams for the RPBA for the last 4 seasons and love the community feel we still have out here in little Rolling Prairie. Before my own kids were in baseball I lived through baseball for years as a child in the KVA as a player. With even more years to follow being toted around to my two brothers’ games for a travel league. Away from baseball I wear many hats as do most parents. I am part of a local veteran owned company Down to Earth. I help my husband Elliot with the administrative needs of the company. I am a Den Leader and Treasurer of your local Scout Pack 350. Finally, I am lucky enough to be a mother to my two wonderful boys.

I want to use all my experiences to best serve my community and the RPBA. My mission is to help bring an engaging and fun program to our local area. I love seeing youth learn and grow, I love baseball, and I love this wonderful small world I get to call home. See you on the field!!

Secretary - Michelle Gourley

I've lived in Rolling Prairie for 13 years and I substitute teach at Rolling Prairie elementary (so its a good chance I know a lot of your kids!) My three kids play softball and baseball in this league and my husband Adam has coached for a number of years now as well! I'm very excited to be a part of the RPBA board, and look forward to what we can accomplish in the 2025 season and beyond! 🥎⚾️❤️

Treasurer - Ashley Hooley

I’m very excited to be RPBA’s treasurer. I have lived in Rolling Prairie my whole life and while my daughters have only been included in RPBA for a couple years we have grown so many relationships with this community, so quickly. If you ever saw a lady at a game with a camera up to the fence, that was me as I’m usually the one behind the lens! I have many years experience with accounting and cannot wait to help our RPBA community grow bigger and better!

Can’t wait to meet and become friends with more of you!

Umpire in Chief  - Jordyn Ryan

I played for RPBA from tball all the way to 14u. This is my 3rd year umping and I helped coach last year as well. I went on to play high school softball my sophomore and junior years. If I’m not at the field then I’m home watching MLB and college teams. I look forward to a fantastic 2025 season and seeing what the year will bring!

Communications  - Jared Emmons

I’m thrilled to join RPBA in charge of communications. This will be my fourth year as an adult volunteer with RPBA, though my connection with the league goes back to my own years as a player. As a father of three daughters who are gearing up for softball and T-ball this season, I’m excited to be part of an organization that shares our family’s love for baseball and softball.

Beyond my role with RPBA, I serve as an assistant baseball coach at New Prairie High School. I look forward to contributing to RPBA’s mission of developing well-rounded young athletes and fostering a lifelong appreciation for the game.
