PLYMOUTH RAIDERS 56

NEWTON ABBOT PACERS 62

This final fixture of the regular Exeter & District Women’s Basketball League season was a top of the table clash.

Before the tip-off though the final league positions were already established with hosts Plymouth Raiders confirmed as runners-up and Newton Abbot Pacers as champions.

However, Pacers had not forgotten the narrow one-point loss in their home game against Raiders and so, as far as they were concerned, there was very much to play for in this dead rubber of a game.

And at the final whistle they had duly got their revenge with a 62-56 victory.
