second round matchups
Friday some time past midnight
Late tonight the final pool finished play with some drama. During a hard fought bout between Tucson and Rat City, Tombstone Teri was knocked off the track by a Rat City skater and slid into the boards. She was obviously hurt and the paramedics were called over. After putting her in a neck brace, a folding table was used as a stretcher. It was at that point I discovered that the paramedics were just volunteers, not actual EMTs and they didn't have an ambulance on site. In a tournament of this scale, 20 teams bouting nonstop for almost 3 full days, it seems like they should have had at least one ambulance on hand for just such an event.
When the Rattlesnake pool was settled, Tucson took first at 4-0, followed by Rat City at 3-1 and Providence the third team at 2-2. With all the preliminaries out of the way the seedings were set for round two.
1. Texas
2. Tucson
3. Minnesota
4. Arizona
5. Rat City
6. Kansas City
7. Mad Rollin' Dolls
8. Carolina
9. BAD Girls
10. Gotham Girls
11. Providence
12. Sin City
The first four teams get a bye in the second round.
Texas plays the winner of Carolina/BAD Girls
Tucson plays the winner of Mad Rollin' Dolls/Gotham Girls
Minnesota plays the winner of Kansas City/Providence
Arizona plays the winner of Rat City/Sin City
