Before the Rockdogs, there was the SF Pacers and Above The Pacific Rim (ATPR).  These are the teams and individuals who paved the way for this present generation of Rockdogs, men who made it easier for us to reap the benefits of exposure, recognition, and a chance to travel and play a game we all love.

A deep felt thank you goes out to Tony Jasinski, Daryle Morgan, Martin Williams, Alex Herrera, Mark Johnson, Earl Chisholm, Rob Burgess, Rhea Taylor, Charles Odom, Sean Trapp, Steve Moore, Eliot Kahn, Taylor Demetrick, Joe Robinson, Michael Mazagi, Jerome "Louie" Lewis, Peter Weiser, Mike Ambrosano, Mike Gray, Larry Cunniffe, Roosevelt Winchester, Mike Beckman, John Wood, Ray Siering and countless others who inspire us to unimaginable heights.
