Nunawading shows promise 

The Spectres had four players in double-digit scoring, with their leading scorer Rachel Brewster dropping 23 points! 

We cannot forget to mention captain Rachel Antoniadou, who had 10 points, six assists and five rebounds to give the Spectres a chance against the Tigers' star power. 

Tigers close out clutch win 

The Melbourne Tigers closed out the Soectrs at home with a three-point win in front of a massive Thursday night crowd at MSAC.

Jack Purchase was on a mission, scoring 20 points with four rebounds -- the former Perth Wildcat was the driving factor in their win. 

What a layup Jack Purchase! ?
