MNA: Champs lives up to name to win A-grade grand final

Champs lived up to their team name this season in winning the A-1 grand final trophy in a nailbiting contest. They defeated the Comets by three points in the big dance on Friday night as part of the Manjimup Netball Association finals series. However, by half-time, Comets had evened the score and went into the main break tied at 17 a piece. Champs rallied in the third quarter, and while Comets narrowed the margin to a few points in the final term, it wasn’t enough. Champs took the win with a full-time score of 42-39, with their own Adele East awarded best on court. Fever took home the B-grade champions beating Vixens 42-29, but Vixens tasted success in the C-grade beating Fever 38-31. Phoenix won the D-grade championship, beating Swifts 31-13.
