CNYRD had the pleasure of hosting the wonderful ladies of Assault City Roller Derby of Syracuse, NY during our practice time on Tuesday April 13th for a scrimmage. The Blue Collar Betties were in full force in preparation for their upcoming debut bout on 4/24 with members of the Clubbers' on hand as bench staff and support.
Out of the whole team, only a handful had seen competition outside of CNYRD, so this was super exciting. The scores stayed pretty constant the first half, with Assault maintaining an approx 15 point lead. The second half saw Assault break away to win approx 120-80.
We are SO proud of our Blue Collar Betties for going up against a more experienced team and playing hard! You girls looked great out there and played amazing!
Thanks so much to Assault City for making the trek out. We hope to do it again soon, and hopefully more regularly.
Many of the Assault City players were also first timers who will be bouting in Cortland this weekend against the Ithaca Bluestockings! Go check them out this sat!
