Is June 12th a Championship Preview? Manhattan and Bronx Hope So
By Thomas Gerbasi

This is IT. Well, not really, but if you’re looking for the closest thing to a championship bout this early in the 2010 Gotham Girls Roller Derby season, then you’ll need to be at Hunter College in New York City this Saturday night as unbeaten squads from Manhattan and the Bronx collide in a rematch of 2009’s GGRD title bout.

In that bout last November, the Gridlock made an amazing comeback from a 42 point halftime deficit to win 116-105 and earn a second championship banner. But that was then, and with a new season underway, the quest to unseat the gals from the Bronx is underway.

Doors at 6:30, first whistle at 8:30
