Viewfinder: Rubber City Rollergirls

What do a Fairlawn accountant, a high school teacher from Kent and an Akron attorney have in common? They're heck on wheels at the roller derby.

By day, Tracy Soulsby is the personification of a buttoned-down professional, but the quiet CPA was practically raised in a roller rink. Now most any given Saturday you can find Soulsby skating with the Rubber City Rollergirls as Eighty-SixHer with teammates known by colorful nicknames like Shady Gaga, and Eve L. Lunacy. Photographer Lew Stamp followed the team at their home opener March 19 in this week's Viewfinder.

The team's next bout is April 2 at the Knight Center.
