The Dairyland Dolls put a long first half scoreless spell behind them to soundly beat Minneapolis’s North Star Supernovas 162-73. The Dolls were favored going into the bout, and now they move on to Saturday afternoon’s WFTDA North Central Regional semifinals against the Minnesota RollerGirls.


Minnesota also advanced, thanks to an upset win against second-seeded Detroit, 118-99. Playing no small part in the upset was former Vaudeville Vixen and Dairyland Doll Juke Boxx. Minnesota trailed at halftime, but roared back in a very fast and physical game. Even for hardcore derby fans, this was a beautiful bout.
