High Rollers bring home a win

The Ark Valley High Rollers played in Denver this past weekend and walked away with 144 to 139 win over the High City Derby Divas of Aurora, CO.  It was a hard fought win that came down to the final jam of the game.  The High Rollers that are now 2-1 are heading to Greeley, CO to take on the June Cleavers on June 4th.

The next time you can catch the High Rollers in action at home is Thursday, June 23rd at 6pm at the Chaffee County Fairgrounds.  This is your chance to catch all of the High Rollers on the track as their two home teams, the Hurt of the Rockies and Banana Belt Herz will battle it out.

For more information on the High Rollers or to join contact Lisa or Michelle at arkvalleyhighrollers@gmail.com.
