Goon grabs all grades

NAR Nar Goon hosted Cora Lynn, again taking out wins in all grades for the second week in a row.

@BT Sub Sport Gaz:A GRADE

In a physical and highly competitive game great skill was displayed by both sides. Nar Nar Goon led by six goals at quartertime, managing to increase the lead to eight at halftime. Cora Lynn fought back in the third quarter to reduce the lead to one goal. Great focus and disciplined play enabled the Goon to come away with the points by six goals. Sam Hodge and Linsey Boddy were fabulous in defence, while Masie Noonan provided plenty of drive through midcourt. Despite the loss of Meg Evans in the third quarter, the Goon showed great depth and versatility to win the match with a team effort.
Scores: Nar Nar Goon 38 d Cora Lynn 32. Best: Sam Hodge.

@BT Sub Sport Gaz:B GRADE

A great team allowed the Goon to come away with a strong win. Rebecca and Erin Murphy were strong in goals, working the ring well and defending well. Julia McPhee and Michelle Collins passed well into goals and the defenders played well, causing a lot of turnovers to the Goon’s advantage.
Scores: Nar Nar Goon 50 d Cora Lynn 39. Best: Rebecca Murphy.

@BT Sub Sport Gaz:C GRADE
