The Tucson Roadrunners will stage their first-ever practice Monday at the Tucson Arena and play an exhibition game Thursday at the San Jose Barracuda. Next Sunday, Oct. 9, the Roadrunners and Arizona Coyotes will play the inaugural Red/White scrimmage at the Tucson Arena at 1 p.m. There is no admission charge. How good is that?
