Bendigo Spirit managed to secure a 7-point victory 76-69 on Saturday. The guests trailed by 11 points at the halftime before their 44-26 charge in the second half, which allowed them to win the game.

The former international point guard Kristi Harrower (166-75) stepped up and scored 28 points and 8 assists for the winners and center Gabrielle Richards (191-84, college: Oregon) chipped in 16 points and 12 rebounds. At the losing side the former international guard Deanna Smith (179-80) responded with a double-double by scoring 17 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists and 4 steals and center Natalie Burton (195-89, college: W.Virginia) scored 14 points.
