4th by Technicality

I thought we played well on Tuesday despite going down 25-14. The other team had some experienced players, and we did well to match them as we did. We got away with a bonus point, and if you check the ladder, we are now (technically) 4^th, given that one team above us is ‘unfinancial’. We’re doing well everyone, keep it up!

Katie – was zipping in and out, here and there whilst playing in the midfield and then adopted to defense in the last quarter to thwart opposition attacks. Seems to have lots of time when she’s got the ball by the way she calmly spots players and passes the ball

Julie – had to play hard to slip past the tough defense but managed to do so and helpp us net over 10 goals (which means we get bonus points!). Continues to be double-teamed but still comes thru.

Mandy – was able to make good cruicial centre breaks for us whilst playing in center and set up a lot of our forward thrusts. Teamed up well with Julie around the circle to get the ball into good shooting positions and into goal

Anita – A typically solid game. Never seems to tire and just keeps running from one end to the other. Dishes off passes quickly and accurately, and one of the reasons why our attacking are coming off much better these days!

Carol – Had to fend a lot of fast breaks from the oppotsition team on Tuesday night and really did well to keep on the goal shooter and restrict how much ball she got. Never let the opponents get easy shot on goal. Oh, and won a face-off too!

Drew – Top job in defense. Made many timely intercepts and also slapped the ball away many times when the opposition were making shots! Was continually encouraging and clapping on the team, whether on the field or off it.

Eddie – played in goal attack for the game and was a great partner with Jules up forward. Had to adopt to a different game playing more out of the shooting circle than usual but did well, moving back and forth quickly and continually.

Scott – Played in wing defense and was a ball of energy. Ran forward to make himself available for passes from defense to attack (being the middle link), and ran equally hard back onto his oppoisite number when the other team had the ball.
