NORTH Warrnambool Eagles and Warrnambool took their domination of 15 and under netball competition to another level at last night's best and fairest count.The undefeated teams, which will meet in the second semi-final on Saturday, also produced the two leading award finishers _ with daylight third. North Warrnambool Eagles goal defender Indi Morrison amassed 34 votes to defeat Brydie Harman, of Warrnambool, on 31.The 15-year-old was shocked to take home her first league best and fairest .``I can't believe it,'' Indi said. ``I would have thought Brydie would have won because she's a better player.``She also plays in goal defence and we are both friends at school.''Little separated Indi and Brydie in round 17. Brydie received a best-on-court to take her to 31 votes - just one point behind Indi who polled no votes for the round.But the last match of the season saw Indi expand her lead and cement the best and fairest title. She polled three votes _ two clear of Brydie.She said the award was an honour but what would be better would be making it into the grand final. Warrnambool and North will face off again this weekend.``It'll be tough,'' she said. ``Because both times we played each other we drew.''Indi received votes in 13 games, with nine best-on-courts. Indi and Brydie finished well clear of Sarah Moroney, of Port Fairy, on 22 votes and South Warrnambool's Ruby Wilson, with 20 votes.
