Ballycastle Bats Badly Beaten Out By Furious Falmouth Falcons
It was a desperate chase for the Bats this week as they and the Falcons fought to turn their even records into winning ones. The match began in a flurry, with both teams furiously flinging quaffles at the hoops. Shot for shot the teams were evenly matched for the first two hours of the match, with Susan Krum doing a valiant job of keeping the Falcons from scoring more than a quarter of their targets. But as the match wore on, the Bats wore out, with the Falcon’s Beater Colin Prince scoring decisive hits on the Bat’s entire Seeker lineup, who slumped through the third and fourth hours of the match while the Falcons continued to chip away at Krum’s defense. Then in hour 5 Narcissa Wood and Marvolo Tonkarelli gained back their breath and scored a few more goals, but by then it was too late. The Falcon’s commanding lead of 470 to 200 was cemented into victory when Dudley Helga, the Falmouth Seeker caught the snitch at 4 hours 55 minutes.
