Defending champions Phillips Electrical Wanganui High School (WHS) A1 is well on the way to back-to-back titles after a solid win over challengers East Club Sports Edge in the premier netball league on Monday night.
Both teams were unbeaten in this round until the Monday night match up where WHSA1 came up trumps winning 53-42.
WHS coach Lisa Murphy said having her whole team back for the first time after injuries was a key factor in the victory.
"Ngaere Chambers, having five weeks off, came back into the game like she had never left with consistent play at wing defence helping cause a lot of turnover ball for us," Murphy said.
"Kelera Kuruyabaki (GK) once again played outstandingly, intercepting and rebounding vital ball for WHS with the help from Georgia Heffernan (GD).
