Youth was front and centre as the Eagles defeated Portland 51-38, leading at each break.
Under 15 player Molly McKinnon played her first full game at wing defence, while Maggie Kellert came on in the first quarter to cover Georgia Corbett, who missed some time with a cut.
“We didn’t absolutely kill Portland in the first, second or third quarters, it was mainly consistency from my girls. Our leaders stood up – Indi Morrison, Laura Blackburn and Kate O’Meara,” Roth said.
