Roller derby has a long history and is still being practiced localy by a series of teams some of which include girls that called Dartmouth,MA home. Roller derby's rumble and tumble is a crowd favorite at the Shriners Hall in Wilmington, MA, a venue that many local teams call home. Some of the girls, including our subject Coleen Aria, 29, who is an interior designer by day and roller derby dame by night, love the sport. Coleen Aria, who grew up and went to school in Dartmouth, MA goes by the nickname 'Rocky' when her team the Cosmonaughties take to the oval in competition. This is part one of the a two part series where I will follow Coleen during her day job.
