JSRG All-Stars victory July 24

It was the Jersey Shore Roller Girls All-Stars against the Pennsylvania’s Dutchland Rollers Blitz who took to the track on July 24, 2010 at the Asbury Park Convention Center in Asbury Park, NJ.  All-Stars led by Captain Toastface Killah and Co-Captain Shermaine Tank  and Bench Managers Push Popp and Ricin Beans were ready to show Dutchland what Jersey  Shore Roller Girls are all about.  Dutchland Blitz, led by Captain Sistine Shrapnel and Co-Captain Spanish Incollision were ready to prove they would be a force to be reckoned with.

From the first whistle Jammer Ruthless Ness of the Blitz grabbed hold of Lead Jammer but it would be awhile before the Blitz held that title again. Chelle B Evil and Dodge AWOL of the All-Stars took Lead Jammer for the next two jams.  All-Stars Jammer Dodge AWOL scored a grand slam by lapping Sukkubus Strixe as JSRG’s Hot Rod Hussy continually blocked Strixe keeping her in her place.

In the next jam, All-Stars Chelle Be Evil grabbed lead Jammer even though she was knocked out of play by Blitz blocker Treasure Chest. All-Stars held the lead in the bout with a score of 20 to 6. Ciri L Killer of the All-Stars scored a grand slam in the next jam with the help of blocker Toastface Killah as Killah took out opposing Jammer Ruthless Ness.

All-Star Jammer Dodge AWOL grabbed Lead Jammer to jams in a row against Blitz’s Spanish Incollision and Sukkubus Strixe making the score 35 to 10 with the All Stars in the lead. In the next jam, some hard hits were made by All Star blocker Black Eye Betty as she took out lead jammer Ruthless Ness.

Trade-off for lead jammer were made between All Stars Ciri L Killer, AWOL, and Chelle Be Evil for the All Stars and Blitz’s Sukkubus Strixe, Ruthless Ness and Blue Scream of Death for the next several  jams making the score 69 to 38 for the All Stars.

Ciri L Killer grabbed a grand slam again Blitz’s Ruthless Ness with the help of All Star blocker Hot Rod Hussy. Hussy took out Ness clearing the way for Killer to rack up 15 points in one jam making the score 84 to 38. Blitz’s Jammers Ruthless Ness and Sukkubus Strixe both gained some points and lead jammer status in the next few jams moving the Blitz up to 46 points against the All Stars 93.

Toastface Killah making her jammer debut for the All Stars took lead jammer against Ruthless Ness even with two All Star blockers in the box.  While later on Blitz’s Treasure Chest took out All Star Jammer Ciri L Killer as she made her way around the track as lead jammer. Killer then cut the track leaving only Blitz jammer Sukkubus Strixe to gain some more points.

Megan Whoopie of the Blitz was injured, but left the floor on her own two feet. In a later jam, All Star Ciri L Killer loses Lead jammer as she gets sent to the box for a back block, leaving only Blitz’s jammer Ruthless Ness on the track allowing her to score Blitz’s only grand slam of the night.

Dutchland came on strong, but the All Stars shut down their points with blocking by Hot Rod Hussy, Black Eye Betty, AC Skater, Belle Maul Her, Cool Mo T, Rollin’ Rican, Jersey Violet, Joy Kill Her and Lita Floor. The All Stars took the lead from the beginning and keep it all the way to the end with a final score of 132 to 98, despite the Blitz strong attempts in the second half.

Come out and see the JSRG’s next bout on August 28, 2010 at the Asbury Park Convention Center. Watch rivals Murder Beach Militia and Right Coast Rollers as they skate their way into the JSRG Season Championship Bout in November.
