Head coach Alan Chapman described the game as a tough one but was happy the team won the match.
“It was really a great game. Even though there were a couple of mistakes, the guys showed up and put their hearts in the match to win,” said Chapman.
The team is looking forward to the finals and hopefully winning the league.
“The guys worked so hard to be where they are. I am proud of them and know they are still going to make us proud,” said Chapman.

“A massive shoutout to the supporters who came to show us love during the match. We are thankful they stuck with us. We cannot wait to see them again, especially at the finals,” he said.
