Brand new WFTDA member leagues West Texas Roller Dollz and Oklahoma Victory Dolls faced off Saturday in Oklahoma City, and DNN cub reporter Moose Ondaluce was there to capture pre- and post-bout interviews.
Additional notes from Moose:
This was actually a WFTDA Regulation Bout, not Sanctioned as stated in the MooseCast.
Oklahoma Victory Dolls got off to a slow start in their first WFTDA bout as Marie LaRolle did some top-notched jamming for West Texas Roller Dollz. OKVD was quick to catch up and take a short lead, but was eclipsed by a 14 point jam by Marie LaRolle. OKVD faught back hard with Jiligula and Pusshy Control in the jamming positions, bring the score at half-time to OKVD 69 – WTRD 77.
The second half was close until Marie LaRolle scored 19 unanswered points in a single jam as the OKVD jammer was in the penalty box. OKVD made a valiant attempt at a comeback, but the final score was WRTD 145 – OKVD 123.
Sanctioned or not?
Moose made a correction up top that this was NOT a WFTDA sanctioned bout. Sounds like maybe some skaters from off the official travel team roster were skating?
I only mention this because it could impact the unofficial rankings over at FTS if it gets mistaken for sanctioned when it wasn't.
-Barely even speaking for myself...

re: Sanctioned or not?
This bout was not sanctioned. Although it was booked months in advance, both teams only became members of WFTDA 2-3 weeks prior to the bout and we did not have enough time to get it sanctioned.
