Kearney Chimeras Can’t Keep Control of Gleeful Grandview Garter Snakes

The final match of this week clocked in at only 34 minutes, leaving not a lot of time for the chasers to do their work, but when you have two of the fastest seekers in the league up against each other, you can usually expect a short match.  Despite the short time, Sherry Reed made 11 attempts on the hoops for the Garter Snakes, 5 of which were blocked by Delya Collyns in a spectacular showing of goalkeeping for the Chimeras.  However, the Garter Snakes’ beaters kept a fair command of the Bludger, and prevented the Chimeras from doing much with the Quaffle uncontested.  Out of 10 attempts between Clara Rippon and Nancy O’Brien, only 5 made it through a hoop. In the end, Julia Lindsay made the catch for the Garter Snakes, despite a close chase from Tanya Racer.  That grab, and the 150 points that went with it, put the Garter Snakes well into the lead and clinched the win.

Final Score: Garter Snakes 240, Chimeras 50.
