NAME: Trudy Bauchery

NUMBER: 5pm

HOMETOWN: Hoosier Town

OCCUPATION: Never-ending paperwork

POSITIONS: Jammer in training, wannabe blocker

BIRTHDAY: May 4th

HATES: Water, ignorance, chick flicks, and bad drivers

LOVES: My poor derby widow, bourbon, public transportation, and outside anything (but only when it's warm, of course)

DERBY WIFE: Crash Menagerie

DERBY INJURIES: During my first real bout I was hit and managed to elbow myself in the diaphragm knocking the breath out of myself. That was embarrassing. Also, the tongue of my skate rubbed a nasty hole into the front of my ankle. Other than that, just lots and lots of pretty bruises.

FAVORITE DERBY MOMENTS: Getting hit by a male derby player and thinking, "GET UP before they goat you!" That was the moment I realized I was no longer trying to stay up on skates.

PRE-BOUT RITUALS: Constantly reminding myself to breathe in and out

TRADEMARK: Making inappropriate comments that I don't realize

FAVORITE. . .

  • ...skate set-up? 8 wheels that go forward and backwards
