Under Fire, They Roll On
“No, I don’t think I will.” In the aftermath of an event their team had just fallen apart in, Coach Quickly of the Savage Speeders was completely blindsided by Coach Rango of the O’rangers, who had just secured their team a gold medal in that same event. Going into Event 15 of the 2019 MarbleContinue reading “Under Fire, They Roll On”
