TXRD 2013 Season Tease


WE’RE BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!

SKATER OF THE WEEK: Kategory 5, Rhinestone Cowgirl Height 5’5”   Birthday February 8th   Distinguishing Characteristics Quiet off the track (just waiting to strike) and demolishing on the track.   Likes The beach!   Dislikes That curling is an Olympic sport.   Injuries Sustained None serious…knock, knock!   Penalties Pushcart is my favorite, mostly due to Truckstop and Deuces Holla being easy to push fast.   Bad Behavior I can have an extraordinary temper (not yet seen in any derby related incident…)   Awards/Good Behavior Rookie of the year: 2008Stat awards: 2008 (74 Points scored and 10 Takedowns) Best Jammer: 2010, 2011, 2012 MVP: 2010, 2011, 201 Cavello Cup Champion: 2011, 2012   Favorite Derby Moment The Rhinestones playing the Holy Rollers in 2008. It was the “last jam” and we were up 4 points. I defensively called off the jam, however it was 31 sec. left on the clock and we had to skate another jam because of it. That was an intense last minute. But the Rhinestones pulled it through! It was also a very educational moment; I will always look at the clock before calling off a last jam again!   Favorite Fan Lava Girl   Hidden Talent Running the beer mile in 12 minutes.   Why I Skate It is cheaper that anger management.
