At the conclusion of the 2019-20 season, Greg Persinger made the difficult decision to step away from Team Ruohonen to focus on his family and businesses. 

Team Ruohonen is excited to make the addition of Andrew Stopera for the upcoming season. Stopera had an incredibly successful junior curling career and has continued to play competitively in mixed doubles and in the men's field. The team looks forward to welcoming his youth and vast international experience as they move on to the next chapter of Team Ruohonen. 

USA Curling thanks Greg Persinger for his great representation of the sport and wishes him all the best in his future endeavors.
