Lindenhurst actress and stunt woman Stephanie Finochio - also famous for her professional WWE wrestling persona Trinity - has taken on a new role as a jammer (scorer) for the recently founded, Suffolk County-based roller derby team Strong Island Derby Revolution.
Prior to taking on this new sports role, Finochio starred in the 2011 film Jesse. She's also starring in the upcoming indie film The Night Never Sleeps, which shot scenes at Top Bun in Lindy this past December.
"Roller derby is this amazing unique sport....I played sports my whole life since high school, and something about roller derby makes it so unique....It's so physical, it's rough, it's tough, [and] there's strategy involved. It's a great mental and physical sport. I love it," Finochio, a Lindy alum, told Lindenhurst Patch.
The team recently held and won its home season opener in Saint James 94 to 88 against the Worcester (Massachusetts) Warriors...More?
