SI Roller Girls

The Southern Illinois Roller Girls have high hopes to become another Southern Illinois institution. Katy Rogers, founder of the Southern Illinois Roller Girls, gives InFocus the inside track on what it takes to put together the first all-female flat-track roller derby league in Southern Illinois. Her teammates, Miriam Timmons (aka Feral Girl) and Tasia Carrell (aka Groovie Ghoulie) and, also, referee Jimmy Brown (aka Captain Obvious) explain how the game is played and why they became involved.
