Cumberland C Team encountered a strong Hyde Park A Team in the NLNL on Saturday. After victory over Hyde B the weekend before, we knew we would be in for a challenging match from the off.
Excellent attacking play during the first quarter meant we were 1 goal up going into the second quarter. Despite strong defence, we couldn't hold off the Hyde Park attack, and they pulled away to lead by 6 goals at half time. We kept fighting back, and a team shuffle gave us renewed energy in the last quarter.
Excellent shooting by 'man of the match' Jane Whitefield, and back up by Carla Tanis meant that we stormed the last quarter. Unfortunately it wasn't enough for us to pull it back, but the final score of 34-27 was a very respectable one.
