Eagles v St Gabriel’s E

Eagles v St Gabs E

Eagles are on a good run at the moment having 2 wins and 1 draw in their last three games, and the youngsters turned on the performance again against a very experienced team of David Aldridge, Viv Ford and Mike Hampshire. Jack Pugh got off to an excellent start taking Viv in the first game but Luke Dumighan struggled against the consistency of David going down in 3 ends. Haydn Williamson also couldn't quite finish Mike off and lost in the final end before parity was resumed when Luke took Viv after being 2 sets to 1 down.

The doubles was a another 5 ender with Luke and Haydn winning 3-2 against David and Viv and then Jack with another 5 ender used his skill to move Mike back and forth from the table to take it 3-2. Haydn took the game of the night to defeat David using his powerful forehand drives to move David back from the tables to give Eagles a 5-2 lead. However in the last three games the only winner for Eagles was Haydn which gave the eagles a 6-4 win on the night but to show how close the match was the end scores were 21-20 to the Eagles, but it does give them 3 wins in a row and helps move them up the table.

Unionist B V Aces

Max used his dynamic attacking style to take all three singles games, only dropping one end in the process. Ian McPherson chipped in with a win and partnered Dan Hutchinson to a doubles win after being 2-1 down. Lee put up a good show and took games past the deuce stage but couldn't get a result leaving the league leaders Bombers with a hard fought 5-5 draw.
