11-12 PLAY OFF
Score: Ballarat 40 defeated Bellarine 38
Scorers: Bree Matthews (17pts), Alice Teague Neeld (13pts)
Report: They got us again, but this time it was a lot closer. Once again we were up with a minute to go but could not hold on. The Girls have had an outstanding weekend against some of the best teams in the country and we know we just might be gaining some respect from those people who don’t even know where Bellarine even is :) A couple of close losses could have been wins and in all the weekend was very positive. Well done girls- Coach
Final Ranking 12th - a few spots better than last year!!
