Aberdeen Owls Outpace Cracking Kingston Sea Cows
A short match in Aberdeen to open the 2019 Federation Champions Quidditch League Season. Cassa Box took only 59 minutes to catch the snitch for the Owls, leaving the Sea Cows not very much time to try to make up the gap. The Owls began with a very energetic and coordinated effort between Chasers August Inglis and Linnie Atkins who scored 100 points between them. Season Blackly, however was effectively shut out of the match by the Sea Cows’ brutal Beaters, Brendon King and Jaquin Denholm. Hopefully Blackly will be recovered in time for next week’s match. The Keepers for both teams, Leron Alwood for the Sea Cows and River Bean for the Owls performed admirably, each blocking 65% of the shots sent at them. But the drama of the match defintely belongs to the Seekers, who had a very close chase for the snitch that began at minute 45, and ended 14 minutes later. The score was Owls: 100, Sea Cows: 70 when Kathryne Hitchens spotted the snitch for the Sea Cows, but Cassa Box cottoned on almost instantly and the chase began. During the desperate race, the Sea Cows managed another score, courtesy of Clarence Chaddock, bringing it to 100-80. But as Hitchens lunged for the snitch, she sagged just a hair and gave Box the opening she needed to snag it and seal the game for the Owls.
