Game 8: (6) NO COAST DERBY GIRLS V (8) JACKSONVILLE ROLLERGIRLS
September 14, 2013
Jacksonville defeats No Coast
By Megan Enemies
The eighth-seeded Jacksonville RollerGirls jumped out to an early 20-0 lead against #6 seed No Coast Derby Girls, of Lincoln, Nebraska, and held onto the lead the entire game. The team from Jacksonville, Florida – fresh off a narrow loss in Game 1 Friday – seemed to have shaken the problems that landed their jammers in the penalty box the day before. The Jacksonville jammers spent only 6 minutes in the penalty box, with most of those penalties coming late in the game, compared to No Coast jammers’ 9 minutes in the penalty box. Jacksonville defeated the Nebraska team, 213-125.

Terminal City – in its first appearance in post-season tournament play – put up a good fight against Texas, the team that earned the first WFTDA Championship title in 2006.
