Many of you know her as Brooke Sloan; some of you remember her as Sushi Roll. Whichever name you know her by, she’s been around since the beginning of Hard Knox. In what ways has she seen the sport of roller derby evolve over the last decade? How has she kept her love for derby alive after all these years? Where does she look to for inspiration out on the track? Read on to learn more about June’s featured skater, Brooke Sloan.

The 2016 Hard Knox Roller Girls' home season is upon us. This year is momentous. This year is huge. This year marks a milestone. HKRG turns 10 years old this year! Come celebrate a decade of derby! To start off the 2016 home season, Hard Knox hits the floor with a double-header against Atlanta, Georgia at the Cooper Athletic Center on the Maryville College Campus in Maryville, TN. Doors open at 4pm. See you there! 

She may be new to our league, but she's not new to the sport of roller derby. Our recent post-season produced several new skaters, some of which were transfers, for Hard Knox. This month's featured skater is one of those transfers, and we're super excited to have her on board. Where does she hail from? How long has she played derby? What is her favorite position out on the track?
