We note that the ("Team Tour") L.A. Riot's young Natasha Wright is on the
UASARS FIRS World Championship team. Watch this young woman. She is part of
a new kind of inline hockey player. She has been playing at a national level
since she was 14. The Riot finished in 8th place in the first division at
the 1997 USA Hockey Inline Cup that year, getting knocked out by Manon
Rheume and Haley Wickenheiser of the Mission Betties. The Riot have since
become a final four fixture at NARcH, USARS, and USAHIL Cup tournaments.

Natasha is at the forefront of a generation of inline players that have
played the game for 7-10 years, played at the regional/national level for
4-5 years, received some high level coaching/training for 3-5 years, and has
not generally (or ever) played on ice. These players skate different than
"transplanted ice" stars, and these youngsters will take over the inline
side of the house this decade from their older sisters.

Watch Ms. Wright, and you will begin to see it happen...this will be quite a
show.

-Dan, Caitlin, and all the little Polar Bears in El Paso, Texas, some of
whom saw in person, the Riot lose in the semi's to Team Easton at last
year's Inline Cup.
