Both these teams are looking for their first win of the season, and every skater is chompin’ at the bit to get a taste of sweet, sweet victory. Will the Rhinestones ride the Putas hard and put ‘em up wet, or will the Putas show the Cowgirls the business end of a flamethrower? Either way, it’s gonna be a firefight!

Get ready for armageddon as the Hellcats take on the reigning Calvello Cup Champions, the Holy Rollers. After slaughtering the Rhinestone Cowgirls and with Captain Dirty Blonde back on the track, the Hellcats are ready for some serious scratchin’. The schoolyard bullies ain’t skeered, though: they picked up some fantastic rookies in the offseason and kept the ever-amazing Smarty Pants on their roster to boot. Will the Rollers de-claw those pretty kitties, or will the Hellcats drop the holier-than-thou schoolgirls right into the litter box? Either way, this game will be one for the history books!

Come on down to the Austin Convention Center to watch as the Putas del Fuego take on the Cherry Bombs.  After an injury-plagued 2007 season, the Bombs are back in action and givin’ it all they’ve got.  Though the Putas took a hit to their lineup in the offseason, they have retained the Triumvirate from Hell (Chola, Holly Peno, and Hell’s Belle), and they’ve taken on a few good rookies to boot.  Will those hot mamas send the Cherries up in flames, or will the Bombs send those Putas back to their street corners? Either way, this bout is not to be missed.

Date: Sunday, March 2

After a substantial offseason, the Lonestar Rollergirls are back in action and ready to kick off the 2008 season! Come watch as the undefeated All-Scar Army massacres the reigning TXRD 2007 champion Holy Rollers. Those girls of the Sacred Heart Schoolyard may have fought their way to a Calvello Cup championship, but the All-Scar Army is prepared to use any force necessary to put down this Rad in Plaid Rebellion. Will the Holy Rollers take the All-Scars to school for the first time? Or will the Rollers become, as they say in the military, collateral damage? Either way, it’ll be a battle to the death!
