The mighty Old Capitol City Roller Girls won their first home bout on Friday over the Quad City Rollers with a final score of 185-91!!!
It was a special night not only because we were victorious, but because everyone seemed to be having a personal best effort. Our jammers skated hard, our blockers hit hard, and we looked out for each by assisting with whips and breaking down walls.
We also had a very good turnout of several hundred people.
Here are some photos from the evening:

I have to say, after not having been to practice forever, the improvement in the team was impressive. You all looked great!
ReplyDeleteWe really have come a long way. And the best part is that we still have a ton of upside.
