PNG Edge out the Cooks

Cook Islands came out flying leading the first Quarter 16-13 and continued the flight leading 33-27 at halftime. With the 3rd Quarter PNG lifted their game and outscored the Cooks 20-14 ending that quarter 47-47. Only changes to Cooks was C - T White and N Puia'Fraser. Playmakers for PNG - C and WA alternated positions and worked well with their GA to dictate play.
PNG showed the Cooks that youth can have magic which proved with the changes they made in the 3rd Quarter for the WYNC GK Nisha Omi unsettled the Cooks shooting circle.PNG GS Tiata Baldwin was also a member of the WYNC team and proved why she deserved to be here.

Outstanding player for Cooks was Curly George (GA) who was again able to shoot, rotate the circle but unfortunately not able to pull back the lead PNG had gained....
A real nail biting game!! It could have gone either way!! The crowd were certainly entertained with a great game of netball - if you weren't at TSA -"you should have been!".....
