[Editor's Note: The Atlanta Rollergirls will be returning to Texas on May 2nd to play the Houston Roller Derby's HaRD Knocks at JOPA.  You will definitely hear these names again.]

A desperate rally by the Dirty South Derby Girls fell short Saturday night as the Dallas Derby Devils defeated the Atlanta Rollergirls squad 115-108 in Grand Prairie, Texas.

Dallas opened up the first jam scoring a pack pass by jammer Roxie La Roo. Then despite not gaining lead jammer in the next jam, The Shocker would outscore the opposing Atlanta jammer 13-5, and DDD took a 17-5 lead. Hot For Teacher scored 12 points in the third jam as Dallas began a 32-15 run early in the bout; Dallas took a 49-20 lead at the end of the seventh jam.

The Dirty South Derby Girls would begin a mini-run of their own as they outscored Dallas 24-8 led by Thunder Enlightenin’s nine-point jam in the tenth jam of the first half, along with another nine-point jam by JuJu in the 14th jam. The score was narrowed to 58-45. But DDD would come back with the last 12 points of the final three jams and Dallas took a 73-49 lead into the half. Dallas Holds Off Atlanta – continue reading …
