The Steel Hurtin’ also played a hard-hitting and difficult match with some of the fastest packs we have seen at home all season.  The Nashville All-Stars came out swinging hard and fast but unfortunately seemed to blow their endurance in the first half.  After that, the Steel Hurtin’ made quick work of widening the point gap and clinching another win with a final score of Steel Hurtin’ 182, Nashville All-Stars 69.

Thanks to all the fans who came out last night, and who have come out all season.  We can’t play derby without you.  Also don’t forget that even though the home season is over for 2010, it’s not the end of derby for the year.  We will be hosting several public scrimmages this fall, the first being on Thursday, Sept 9th.  The theme is Lady Gaga vs. Prince.

Also mark your calendars for Sunday, October 10th for our Halloween costume skating party fundraiser at Romp N Roll.

The next stop for the Steel Hurtin’ is Eastern Regionals in Westchester, NY where they are seeded 5th and face off against the Charm City Roller GIrls (Baltimore, MD) in the first round.

The SCDD would like to thank all of you great fans who came out to support the SCDD at both the Black n’ Gold Scrimmage on Thursday, Feb. 18th and the Skating Party Fundraiser.

The Gold or “Bananas” team won the scrimmage and you can check out the play-by-play bout recap here written by our own Michael Frighten’d.  Thanks also to everyone who came bearing gifts for our friends over at the Pittsburgh Food Bank, who took home boxes and boxes of donated food items for people in need.

The SCDD cannot thank everyone enough who came out to the Skating Party Fundrasier today.  The SCDD is a skater owned and operated organization, and we rely on the support of our friends and fans to keep us going.  Good clean fun was had by all for (in our humble opinions) a great cause.

There will be raffles and a DJ spinning awesome tunes!
