In its first home game of the
season, the Jerzey Derby Brigade (JDB) last night hosted in Morristown NJ the
Dominion Derby Girls visiting all the way from Hampton Roads VA. Despite a
strong 2017 season and a convincing win in its first 2018 away game on March
31, the JDB encountered an opponent strong enough to stop its winning streak.
The pattern was set in the
very first jam when Dominion jammer #21 Smokin’ Ices put the first four points
on the board. Time and again Smokin’ Ices proved herself Dominion’s big gun,
dodging past JDB blocking almost at will. Also formidable were Dominion jammers
#15 Sparkle Wolf and #777 Khristal Meth. Dominion’s blocking was exceptional as
well, often utilizing 4-blocker walls instead of the usual 3 plus one-free.
Dominion didn’t have it entirely its own way. JDB jammer #3684 Californikate
proved able to break through the Dominion wall repeatedly while #8 Lil Mo Peep
And #128 Val Royale found paths around them. In the second half JDB upped its
blocking intensity, with no fewer than three JDB skaters fouling out.
Californikate scored the last points of the bout. But, it wasn’t enough for
JDB. Dominion dominated, taking the win 275-74.
