Senior Girls win the County Cup for a fifth straight year!

Congratulations to the Senior Girls squad for an outstanding victory tonight in the Senior County Cup Final. We travelled with a young team (two year 9's and 7 year 11's) who were a little nervous about playing a senior final. However, we started very well and were soon 27 - 14 up. Cleme Lewis was scoring well inside with Karis Mimms and Holly Seglah playing some excellent defence. The fourth quarter saw Queens change to a zone on defence which made it much more challenging to get close to the basket. Queens began to come back and with only a two point lead we lost Cleme to injury. With only 1 minute remaining scores were level at 40 all and then Maddy Warbey rebounded a missed shot and scored to put us two points up. The Queens point guard then hit one foul shot to put the game on a knife edge. Some excellent defence saw us home in the tightest of games. Well done to the girls for showing a lot of character in a very well deserved victory!
