Knights Too Strong For Pirates
The Glenorchy Knights made it back to back victories, accounting for Taroona 3-0 at Lightwood Park on Sunday afternoon. Taroona defended solidly in the first half and took the game into the break at 0-0, but the second stanza was all Knights. Sarah Bolonja scored in the opening moments of the half and that lead was soon doubled by a Summer Neal Olimpico goal. Jemima Brown then put the finishing touches on a win that sees the Knights draw level on points with the Lions.
