The one-way traffic continued in the third and fourth quarter with Marymount dominating the ball. Smith was awarded best on ground.

In the boys game, Villanova College kicked out to a seven-point lead at quarter time.

St Vincent’s fought back in the second term but Villanova were able to hold a one-goal lead at halftime.
