Cincinnati Rollergirls, Black Sheep, August 22, 2009



I had a great trip to Pittsburgh over the weekend of August 22. The Lambs won their bout in comeback fashion, then the Sheep came out strong and held off a frenzied Pittsburgh offensive attack to win their bout. Pittsburgh has scored 100 or more points in 8 of their last 9 bouts. They're much improved and gave the Sheep a good run, but fell short. They've come a long long way since last year.

The Pittsburgh hosts were great and I even had a good time at the after party, the first one I've attended all year. Then after spending the night with my brother-in-law who just moved to Pittsburgh at the beginning of this year. Great town, great bouts.

Cincinnati Rollergirls, August 22, 2009



Every so often something happens that you remember for a very long time. Such a thing happened on Saturday night as the Cincinnati Rollergirls Silent Lambs put on an incredible comeback and won their last bout of the 2009 season. As photographer I had a hard time sticking to my task as the team became more and more excited with the result. The team put together a 27 point jam to push ahead by 2 points with a little over a minute to play. It was epic.
