LVRG vs HARD Post Game Wrap Up

3/31/12

The Lehigh Valley Hissy Fits took commanding control early in the first half, establishing a clear dominance that set the pace for the rest of the game. Veteran jammer, Vanilla CreamHer, along with second season jammers Lauranimal and Happy Feet, displayed exceptional focus and skill in racking up points to get LVRG an early lead in the first half of the game.

In the second half of the game, H.A.R.D. adjusted their approach and brought a more physically demanding game to the table.  However, their strategy change did not come without an answer from LVRG.  Heavy hitters Lin Diesel, and Levilin Levi responded to this intensified pressure from H.A.R.D. by strategically using their partnering skills to protect LVRG’s lead.  Overall, this season opener introduced and reflected LVRG’s new attitude towards strength, commitment, and teamwork.  The Lehigh Valley Rollergirls took home their first WFTDA sanctioned win against H.A.R.D. 155-136.

Looking ahead to the next game of the season, LVRG will be playing the Garden State Iron Bound Maidens on April 14th. Garden State has an unpredictability factor that LVRG will certainly need to respect.  LVRG has not played Garden State in a few years; however, the teams have bouted some of the same opponents during the 2011 season.

In the past, both teams have won against the opponents, yet the point spreads have been significantly different.  Pound for pound, both teams are equally matched in ability, experience, and strength.  The deciding factor for this game on April 14th will rely heavily on the quickness of the jammers and each team’s strategical play.

Get your tickets early; we are expecting another packed house for this exciting game against Garden State.
