South Jersey in the Newspaper

Posted by sjderbygirls on April 7, 2008 in Flat Track, Men's Derby, South Jersey Derby

Roller derby is typically an all-girl sport, but some leagues are coed. Franks’ son Kenny Taylor, 18, of Vineland skates under the name “That Kid Kenny” with the South Jersey Derby Girls. Taylor enjoys the sport, but admits he had some trouble getting over the golden rule: “Boys don’t hit girls.”

Franks gave him some motherly encouragement

“I knocked him down a couple of times,” Franks said. “Then Billy Rae christened him. He learned to hit back.”
