Xena Morph (#21) skated with the Santa Cruz Derby Groms as "Cutie Carnage" from 2011 until she turned 18 in 2015. In 2015 she attended Junior Roller Derby Championships in Seattle with the Gromshells at their first ever appearance in the big arena.
In 2017 Xena laced her skates back up with the adult league, the Santa Cruz Derby Girls. She has been playing adult derby consistently for the past two seasons as both a Steamer Jane and a Boardwalk Bombshell.
As an experienced jammer Xena brings finesse, footwork, and a love for skating fast to coaching the Saltwater Sassies team. For Xena and family the Santa Cruz Derby Groms is a legacy. Xena's little sister now skates on the Saltwater Sassies, channeling much of what comes naturally to Xena into her own derby play.
Xena skates with passion and her joy is contagious. The Santa Cruz Derby Groms are fortunate to keep so many of our alumni close. Our former players help to mold the next generation by generously volunteering to coach and lead.
