3 Dec 2017 by John Kennedy

Tigers U18 Women bounced back from their defeat against Blaze to pick up the win over Tyrone Towers. In a tight first period, Tigers lead most of the way but Towers were never out of the game, however they ran into foul trouble which allowed Tigers to close the period out 14-13 ahead. Coach Clare made some team changes at the start of the second to rest some of the U16 girls who played earlier and Towers took advantage to lead 24-16 with the Tigers making some defensive errors. Tigers made some further changes and fought back to lead 28-25 at the end of the second. The third period continued in the same format with the lead changing hands between the teams, however it was Towers who were able to gain the lead in the closing period 40-34 ahead. Tigers were trying to make some difficult passes during the 3rd which Towers defended well. Into the 4th and Tigers reverted to their starting team which Towers could not handle, with the Tigers turning on the power and took the game 55-46. A tight game throughout until the Tigers finished strongly.
