On Saturday, April 24, the Oklahoma Victory Dolls traveled to Fayetteville, AR to skate against Northwest Arkansas Roller Derby’s Killbillies. In their last face-off, Northwest Arkansas emerged victorious with a score of 165-46. This game proved to be a much tougher match consisting of multiple lead changes.
Northwest Arkansas started off with a quick lead, but it was quickly followed by lots of trips to the penalty box. T Pain’s jamming in jam 7 for OKVD gave a one-point lead for the Victory Dolls, bringing the score to 26-27. Over the next two jams, the lead changed two more times. In Jam 9, Party Pants scored 15 for OKVD giving a score of 34-46. NWA’s blockers starting stepping up the defense including some big hits from Blackzilla and tough positional blocking by Apache Rose. Killbilly jammers dominated the final 8 jams of the first half, gaining lead jammer status and stifling Oklahoma’s jammers’ scoring. At halftime the score was 81-67 in favor of Arkansas.
The second period started with NWA gaining a bigger lead followed by heavy defense. The third jam featured NWA’s The Professional scoring an unanswered 15 points to lengthen the lead to 104-67. NWA kept a definite focus on defense from this point on. OKVD’s blockers were strong featuring the quick bursts of Jen A Tease and intensity from Sally Strychnine. It was never enough, however, to hold off the simultaneous scoring and defensive jamming by JoAnn of Arc. The final score was 137-110.
NWA’s next bout is in Fayetteville, AR against the Dallas Derby Devils. OKVD will be playing in Oklahoma City on May 15th.

Sudden Impact Success!
Another great bout was held at our home, Starlight Skatium this past Saturday featuring the Backwoods Betties and our guests the ICT Roller Girls from Wichita, KS.
Another great bout was held at our home, Starlight Skatium this past Saturday featuring the Backwoods Betties and our guests the ICT Roller Girls from Wichita, KS. ICT took the win at 172 to 119 against the Betties, but both sides fought hard the entire game, making for a very exciting bout for Starlight’s packed house.
It was the first bout for several of the Betties and they looked great. Newcomers Anger Management, Buzz Bomb, Diabla Piquena and Brunette Threat held their own in their first dose of derby, while crowd favorite Queen LeTeachya, once again stepped onto the rink and brought the thunder after coming back from a long leave. NWA is sure happy to have her back.
Thanks and congratulations to ICT for coming all the way to NWA. And thanks to our fans!
