Corowa Rutherglen 47 def North Albury 38
It was Corowa’s hardest game to date in season 2024 but that didn’t stop them from grinding and pushing out the score line in the second half.
A Grade’s Elle Finemore GD, Sally Hunter GK and Leah Bihun C in full concentration.
Corowa beat North Albury 47 to 38 in the hot and hard hit out at Fohn Foord Oval last Saturday, to make it three wins from three games.
Sophie Hanrahan in GS, Leah Bihun C and Brooke Cannon WA battle it out.
Attackers had a battle with long arms from North. Nonetheless, the rotations of Corowa’s shooters stayed strong and disciplined.
Despite the speed of North Albury, Roos stayed steady and executed the game plan.

B Grade
Corowa Rutherglen 35 def by North Albury 54
“It’s my ball, not yours” may have been the thoughts of Corowa’s GK Coutney Haigh.
The score didn't reflect the game. There were lots of opportunities to score but with a new look side, the team still needs to iron out some bugs. Bring on the Bulldogs!
Club 1: Courtney Haigh, Origin: Kiara Corkett, Canteen: Tori Sampson, MVP: Macey Drayton.
