Killamazoo Falls to Michigan’s Best

This past weekend, the Killamazoo Derby Darlins kicked off their season with a double-header bout against the Mitten Kittens at home that drew some of the most excited and dedicated derby fans Wings Stadium has ever seen.

After practicing through the off-season, Killamazoo and the Killa Crew were ready to show off some new skills and some new skaters. With the line-ups changing up until the last week, there was some uncertainty as to how the Mitten Kittens would mesh as a team for the bout, but the Kittens had claws after all. The state’s top players came together to form a mega-force that included skaters from Grand Rapids, Detroit, Ann Arbor and Lansing, and while Killa Crew and the Killamazoo Derby Darlins fought hard, it wasn’t enough to beat Michigan’s finest. Killa Crew fell to the Black Cats 173 to Black Cats 227and Killamazoo was bested by the Precious Kitties 187 to 236..

We’re looking ahead to the February 16th home bout against Brewcity to reclaim our turf and Kill! Kill! Kill! See you then!
