SAN DIEGO, CA -- This Saturday night, the San Diego Derby Dolls are hosting two WFTDA teams, the Atlanta Rollergirls and the Angel City Derby Girls, for a double header of roller derby action at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. 
 
Both bouts will be covered live via video on DNN courtesy of the San Diego Derby Dolls. Coverage begins at 5:30pm Pacific (8:30pm Eastern) with Atlanta vs. Angel City, followed by Atlanta vs. San Diego at 7:45pm Pacific (10:45pm Eastern).

Atlanta is trekking all the way across the country to take on the two southern California teams.  First Atlanta’s all-star travel team, the Dirty South, will face Angel City’s all-star travel team, the Hollywood Scarlets.  Then the Dirty South will take the track again to try to put out the Wildfires, SD’s all-star travel team.
 
The Georgia girls just recently returned to DNN's top-25 Power Rankings by winning the Clover Cup in March, taking out Houston and Dallas in the process and landing at #19. Officially, Atlanta is currently ranked #5 in the WFTDA South Central region, but they're likely to rise in the next quarterly release, as Houston and Dallas currently hold the 3 and 4 spots. Angel City had a short stint at #23 on the Power Rankings last summer, but dropped off in the wake of the Regionals cycle. Officially, they're at #8 in the WFTDA Western Region.
 
SD is coming off the road after being in Ohio last week, bringing home a 129-108 win against Cincinnati, to whom SD lost last year.  SD’s win against Cincy pushed them into the Power Rankings #15 slot, their highest charting on the Power Rankings yet. SD’s Wildfires are not a WFTDA team and therefore have no official ranking.
 
Much like when Cincinnati visited SD last year, Atlanta and SD will meet up a second time Sunday morning for a non-public game on the banked track at SD’s Dollhouse in downtown San Diego.
