OAKLEY IN THE MONEY

At Longmeadow yesterday morning Oakley played Parkside BC in the 3rd and 4th Play Off for the Moreton Plate. The scores were tied at 5 ends but by 10 ends Oakley had a narrow 2 shot lead, which increased to 4 by 15 ends. Parkside then made a move and by 18 ends Oakley had dropped four shots behind. That, however, was the end of the recovery with Oakley winning all the remaining 6 ends to emerge triumphant by 43-37.
