Kybybolite v Penola

Penola’s title defence is over after it fell four goals short in the 2022 Kowree Naracoorte Tatiara Netball Association elimination final on Sunday.

The Eagles faced off against Kybybolite and both sides needed the win to advance through to the next game.

The Tigers scoring ability across the four quarters of play was immense and the efforts of Georgie Maggi set up the win with a huge 14-5 first term.

But to Penola’s credit they found something after quarter time and came home with a wet sail with April Possingham on fire.

Despite the late charge the Eagles still fell short and their dream of back-to-back titles is over.

Lily Pfitzner was named in the best for the Hawks while Whitney Smith flew high for the Crows.
