A well-equipped Blaze side scored an impressive 18 goals in the closing 15 minutes of an action-packed match to overturn a prior deficit at the hands of the league champs.
There were never more than a few points in it and the teams juggled leads throughout following Rezzers’ slight first-quarter advantage of 14-13.
It was looking to be another one for the Rezzers as they entered the final quarter 47-44 up, but Blaze’s excellent attacking meant that the match ended on level terms.
Verona Tomlin was nominated as the Rezzers’ player of the match, while fellow GA Abbie Greening took that honour for Blaze.
