Just because the Manic Attackers won the Ivy King Cup, completing a Cinderella run, doesn't mean the ladies of the Windy City Rollers are done. That was only one half of the season. The next half begins this weekend. The WCR All-Stars head to Philadelphia this weekend for the East Coast Extravaganza. First up for our #2 Windy City Rollers squad will be the #21 Cincinnati Rollergirls at 3:30 p.m. (Chicago time) on Saturday. Then, on Sunday, the team takes on #8 Boston at 4 p.m. (Chicago time). You can follow boutcasts live at the Derby News Network site. Knock 'em out, ladies!
