December 12, 2024

Minnesota Roller Derby kicked off its season in November, and the skater-owned, flat-track team is looking ahead to its next bout this weekend. The team is based in St. Paul and calls the Legendary Roy Wilkins Auditorium home for practices and games.
The first whistle blows this Saturday at 6 p.m. in an event called 8-Bit Hits, so let’s get in on the fun by crafting a playlist for the team to “jam” to!
So for today’s 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs that are empowering or about winning would you like to hear?
