Aroostook Biohazards turned the rematch into another statement, beating Maine Old Port Brigade 188-128 in Skatecationland Game 6 at Happy Wheels Skate Center in Westbrook, Maine. The 60-point margin gave the Biohazards a clean finish to the weekend and kept a long-running rivalry pointed in the same direction.

The result mattered because this was not an isolated blowout. Before Sunday, Maine Old Port had never beaten Aroostook in the head-to-head series, and WFTDA Stats had the Biohazards listed as the Brigade’s biggest rival. The series log already showed Aroostook wins on Feb. 18, 2024, May 17, 2025 and April 25, 2026, and Sunday’s 188-128 final pushed that run to 0-4 from Maine Old Port’s side.

Skatecationland itself gave the bout added weight. Maine Roller Derby billed the June 13-14 tournament as its third annual Skatecationland, a two-day sanctioned invitational with five games each day and teams drawn from Maine, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Vermont, New Jersey and Massachusetts. Because the games counted toward Women’s Flat Track Derby Association Northeast rankings, every jam carried competitive value beyond the local rivalry.

For Maine Old Port, the Sunday matchup came after a difficult Saturday loss to Bay State Brawlers, leaving the Brigade to try to reset against the same opponent that had repeatedly denied them in recent seasons. Instead, Aroostook again found the more efficient scoring rhythm and controlled the evening’s swing moments, building enough separation that the final stretch never felt in doubt.

The bracket context also highlighted how deep the event ran. Alongside Maine Old Port and Aroostook, Skatecationland featured Maine’s other travel teams and visiting sides such as North Star Roller Derby Supernovas, Harrisburg Area Roller Derby Nuclear Knockouts, Twin State Derby Vixens, Dirty Jersey Roller Derby All Stars and Bay State Brawlers. Tournament leadership included Rachel “Cinderellbows” Casey as tournament director, with Chemical Restraint and Candied Bacon named as head officials.

Aroostook’s 188 points underscored the pressure it could sustain over a full tournament weekend, while Maine Old Port’s 128 showed the Brigade still had enough offense to stay in the game for stretches. The larger story, though, was the same one the rivalry has told for more than two years: when these teams meet, Aroostook keeps finding the cleaner answers, and the Biohazards keep leaving with the result.
