Jake Epple, 14, of St. Anthony, sits on a counter waiting for his match during a roller hockey game at Jasper Skate Palace in Jasper, IN, Jan. 23, 2019. Being the only rink offering the sport in the area, owner of Jasper Skate Palace Brian Rawlins has upheld the tradition of hosting roller hockey at his rink. "For us it's a way to challenge the kids to skate, and do something better," said Rawlins. "Once you get hooked on it, it's hard to go back and do some of the slower sports."
