Nine-goal rout helps Royals stay undefeated in Great Southern Soccer Association division two competition

Royals have continued their strong run of form in the Great Southern Soccer Association women’s division two competition following their 9-0 annihilation of Mt Barker on Friday. Royals hit the front early, putting five goals past Mt Barker in the first half before adding four more in the second period to extend their undefeated run to 11 games. Zoe Baldwinson was superb in front of goals to net a hat-trick while Steevie-Lee Coulson also added three of her own in a sparkling display. Lilly Cooper (two goals) and Rebecca Hueppauff (one goal) rounded out the other goal scorers for the winning side. Meanwhile, Rovers got on top of Polonia 2-0 and Grammar were defeated by Denmark C 3-0 in the other division two games. In women’s division one competition, three first-half Caledonians goals set up their sixth win of the season in their 3-1 victory over Denmark B. A Kristen Pryz-Brown strike in the 12th minute opened scores before Kayla Stoney added another for Caledonians. Denmark B’s Tyra Manganaro answered back in the 28th minute but Holly Jennings put the game to bed with a calmly converted shot in the 39th minute to secure the triumph. Elsewhere an Eloise Garland brace helped Denmark A move past Phoenix 4-0 and Mt Barker continued their dominance with an 8-2 win over Polonia. A stunning four-goal haul from Mya Oreo helped Polonia B edge out Bayswater with a 4-3 win and Rovers prevailed against Sonics 3-0. In men’s division one competition on Saturday, a superb hat-trick from Justin Bielecki fired Rovers to their seventh win of the season against Bayswater. Jack Ditchburn scored the only goal for Bayswater in the defeat. In the other fixtures, Caledonians breezed past Denmark 3-0 and Royals trounced Polonia 3-0. Jaymond and Jesse Spaanderman helped Phoenix come from a goal behind to snatch a 2-all draw with Caledonians in the men’s division two action. Sebastian Siemiginowski’s strike was enough for Polonia to trump Rovers in their 1-0 victory. A Matthew Walmsley hat-trick helped Bayswater thump Royals 7-0.
