The Gap Women have returned to winning ways with a comfortable 4-0 win over Brisbane Olympic Women on Saturday night.
Gators suffered a stunning loss to Peninsula Power Women last week, ending a 30-match unbeaten run, but this outing was the perfect antitode to the pain of that defeat.
First-half goals to Jessica Dillon, Talitha Dora and Charli McLennen set the tone for the evening, before Greta Bodey added an exclamation point with five minutes remaining.
Olympic are still searching for their first win of 2017 and will travel to Sunshine Coast FC Women next week in search of that maiden victory.
The Gap are back on track and visit Western Pride FC Women next Sunday hoping to kickstart another winning streak.
