St Jude's Primary got off to an impressive 11-0 winning start over Ellerton Primary in the Pamala Proverbs Zone of the National Sports Council's Pine Hill Dairy Primary Schools Netball Competition played today at James Bryan Sports Complex.
Only three games were contested today at that venue and St Jude's were able to run rampage over Ellerton who struggled to score a single goal in what was the final fixture of the day.
St Jude's goal-attack Tranisha Smith scored seven of ten attempts and goal-shooter Jenica Graham was also on target nailing four from six. It was sheer dominance from St Jude's who controlled proceedings throughout with seven of their 11 goals being scored during the five-minute second-half period.

Alika Harewood, one of St Jude's' top track and field stars, played center position and was exceptional, ensuring the ball flowed from midcourt towards the shooters who were always on standby especially goal-attack Smith.
