Kooweerup toils in vain

KOOWEERUP in E grade played Nar Nar Goon and went down by nine goals in a good standard game at the weekend.
There was clean ball handling from both sides with goals being scored quickly in the opening term. The attack of Shanae Ingram and Sam Belsham did well and at halftime the scores were 12all. Kooweerup remained in touch in the third quarter after Emily Harrison was swung into the centre and trailed by one goal at the final change.
Kooweerup put up a tough fight across the court, but was unable to match Nar Nar Goon’s finish and went down in the end.
Scores: Nar Nar Goon 28 d Kooweerup 19.
