Sun out for a few Woori wins



The sun came out and it was another perfect day for sport.

The day started in Seville with the senior women’s team falling just short in a very entertaining game. Monbulk was just a little bit better in the moments that mattered, the girls regroup and face Warburton-Millgrove next week in what should be a super cutthroat final.

Final scores Monbulk 4.3, 27 defeated Woori Yallock 3.5, 23. Top Tigers were Sky Wilson, Keren Wakefield, India James, Adele Ormsby, Michelle Brown and Casey Wright.

The Under 18 team is really starting to hit their straps and came away with a fantastic win against Mt Evelyn, final scores Woori Yallock 10.7, 67 defeated Mt Evelyn 5.11, 41. Top Tigers were Harvey Smith, Riley O’Connor, Lucien Primavera, Malachy Poulton, Zeke Dewhurst-Sibley and Remmi Jakimowicz.

The Ressies continued their great run of form with a close win against Mt Evelyn and the club would have to go a fair way back to remember a Ressies victory against a strong Mt Evelyn outfit. Final scores Woori Yallock 10.8, 68 defeated Mt Evelyn 9.6, 60. Top Tigers were Marcus Baxter, Aaron Cakuls, Jude Hay, Hamish Gemmill, Caleb Lee and Ryley Dare.

The netball had a tough day at the office with the B Grade side being the only shining light.

Scores:

A Grade: Woori Yallock 35 defeated by Mt Evelyn 70. Top Tigers were Danika Corless, Hayley Debuf and Olivia Caneva.

B Grade: Woori Yallock 61 defeated Mt Evelyn 56. Top Tigers were Tarsha Collette, Brydie May and Jaymee Tough.

C Grade: Woori Yallock 15 defeated by Mt Evelyn 58. Top Tigers were Ash Wilson, Tahlia Thornton and Grace Sibley.

D Grade: Woori Yallock 22 defeated by Mt Evelyn 40. Top Tigers were Rebecca Jackson, Connie Mercuri and Kylie Corbett.

17 and Under: Woori Yallock 33 defeated Mt Evelyn 16. Top Tigers were Charlotte Comport, Georgia Sands and Oliver Stenhouse.

Under 15s: Woori Yallock loss due to forfeit

In the senior men’s footy, it was an entertaining end-to-end game with the forwards on top for both teams and the momentum flowing in the midfield. Credit to Mt Evelyn on a strong performance and it was only Woori’s ability to hit the scoreboard a bit more being the difference.

Final scores Woori Yallock 19,18, 132 defeated Mt Evelyn 15.5, 95. Top Tigers were Taylor Gibson, Liam Odea, Jak Ryan, Robert Allen, Kynan French and Jason Lindgren.

This week Woori Yallock heads to Emerald for footy and netball while the senior women’s head to Healesville for a clash of the valley against Warburton-Millgrove.
