Salesian had it way over Sage with a team that plays club together all season long. Sage has one Club player and a team with a lot of talent that needs some more seasoning. It was an exciting match in the third game but the first two Sage couldn’t get their groove. A home game for Sage may have made the difference. Looking towards finals with a vote Salesian just may put it away in three against St. Margarets.
They are very good! Congrats to Salesian from the Sage team.
