CDM: Corona Del Mar Polo take the U18 Gold
AUS Gold's Danielle Morrissey opened the scoring with an outside shot from a 6 on 5 play, out-faking the CDM goalkeeper Heidi Ritner. Two exclusions against CDM led to no goals from the Aussies, with some clear finals-nerves apparent.
Corona Del Mar's Eliza Britt scored one for CDM in the 2nd quarter to equalise, from a man-up play. Grace Morgan from CDM put two goals to her name including one penalty. Half-time score 1-3 to CDM.
Britt scored another for CDM early in the third quarter to push her team's lead out to three. 3 exclusions and a time-out led to no more goals for the third quarter - CDM sitting ahead 1-4.
Missed shots and poor passing from the Australians meant that CDM had the chance to head down the pool on counter-attack - and earned another penalty. Morgan converted again to extend her team's lead to four with 4 minutes left to play.
A goal from Aussie Gold's Emma Jones gave them a whiff, but wise movements from CDM forced Lara Zimmerman to give away a penalty - letting Gracie Morgan score her fourth for the match.
Australia's Tess Jenkins had the final say, scoring an outside shot with 7 seconds left on the clock.
CDM waited out the time, and then jumped in the pool to celebrate their 3-6 victory over the Australian Gold Born '98s - congratulations CDM!
NUMBER ONE: Congratulations CDM - 1st place in U18 Women
