Las Vegas, NV- The Las Vegas Wranglers announced the 2007-08 Training Camp Roster.

"We feel we are in a rebuilding year," said Wranglers General Manager / Head Coach Glen Gulutzan. "We have a good core of players who should provide leadership for a lot of the young players that we have here. We have a lot of players trying out this year, so the competition in camp should be pretty fierce. Our goal is the same as it is every year, we are aiming for a playoff berth and the Kelly Cup."
