Senior Boys LMR Cricket
After a long bus ride to Mildura, the Senior Boys Cricket team faced off against CMC in the first game. We bowled first keeping CMC to a decent total but after a slow start with the bat, fell three runs short. It was a great batting display from Hudson Kellett scoring 42 runs.
In the second game we got off to a quick start batting first and then finished the innings strong with good performances from Oli Williams and Hudson Kellett. We also bowled well keeping Mildura just short of the total.
It was a good day overall and everyone enjoyed themselves. Big thanks to Mr Carnie and Ms Miesen for coaching on the day.
