South Bend Powers Way To Win At Dollhouse
WARSAW – From the start, it was a South Bend kind of night. The visiting South Bend Roller Girls took control from the opening whistle, building a 51-point lead quickly and continuing that pace to a 233-103 victory over the Lake City Roller Dolls Saturday night at the Dollhouse.
South Bend wasted no time, using the slick skating of jammer Ice Ice Abby to rack up big points early. Lake City didn’t run much interference on Abby in the first half as the speedy skater helped the Roller Girls post 51 points before Lake City could mount any offense.
On the other end of the bout, South Bend’s blocking kept Lake City from mounting any sustained attacks. The trio of Legs Fordays, Block & Deckher and Buckwyld Barbie were muddled within the walls of South Bend defenders, and weren’t able to rack up many high-scoring jams.
Fordays and Abby were named MVP jammers of the bout; MVP blockers were Spiteful for Lake City and Elbow Nita for South Bend.
A standing-room only crowd witnessed the mayhem at the Dollhouse.
The next bout for Lake City will be at home June 6 against Battle Creek, a 5 p.m. start.
