Phrenics Terminate Terminal City
PHOTO BY VICO MEJIA
The roller derby bout Saturday night, June 18, was like the plot
to 300. Due to injuries and scheduling confl icts, Terminal City
Rollergirls’ All Stars only brought nine skaters (teams usually use
14). The unranked visitors from Vancouver, BC were also battling
the powerful 12th-ranked Emerald City Skatesaphrenics. Despite
being overmatched, Terminal City put up a Spartan fi ght.
With a 14-6 lead nine minutes into the hour-long bout, it looked
like Terminal City might give the Phrenics a skate for their money.
Enter Bullet Brains. As the scorer, Bullet jammed through Terminal
City’s defense for a 17-0 run. The Phrenics would not trail again.
A 72-34 halftime advantage only served as a prequel to
the trouncing. The Phrenics held Terminal to only fi ve points
in the second half. “Emerald City’s three-skater walls were
impenetrable,” Terminal City’s risquée biznatch told me. “Their
ability to use each other to truck-and-trailer me out of bounds was
outstanding.”
Final score: Skatesaphrenics 127, Terminal City 39.
Skatesaphrenics’ Katarina Van Rotten was top scorer with 37
points. Terminal City’s Rollergirl led all blockers with 54 blocking
actions (41 jammer stops, 13 assists for her jammer).
Emerald City’s next home bout is July 16. Visit www.
