Little Red Riveters pound SDB Div 2 All Stars

Bout 2 of last week's junior action at Southgate Roller Rink in Seattle featured a Portland Home team, The Little Red Riveters, up against the Seattle Derby Brats' B team, the Division 2 All Stars.

Things stared slow, with both teams playing tight defense and and driving jammers to force the call-off, until Assalting Caramel was able to take advantage of a power jam and brought the all stars the lead in the 7th jam of the game, 24-15.Unfortunately for the Brats, the Rosebuds home teams play their A level players as well, and Little Bo Weep wasn't going to stand by and let that happen.  The 8th jam saw her with the star on her head and a 29 point power jam in her pocket.

Over the next ten jams, the Brats managed to claw back and took the lead once again (54-53) on the the 4 and out by Amelia Dareheart, but they lost it for good the next jam as, once again, Little Bo Weep had the advantage of a cut track by the Brats jammer and slapped up 15 points.  Riveters had the lead at the half, 88-67.

The rest of the bout was just as toughly fought as the first.  jammers were hard pressed to gain 1's and 2's, let alone 4's!  In fact, if not for penalties allowing the Portland squad to put up 52 points, the All Stars would have had this one in the bag.  They controlled lead the majority of the time and were doing an excellent job of point control.  As time ran out, The Riveters took the victory having only extended their lead by 4 points over all, 167-142.

Three Cheers for Riveters!

Little Bo Weep - 82 points, a lead percentage to be envied by all?  This jammer has earned the respect of her opponents as well as the first cheer!
