State League Premiers 2007

Eltham 17 d Surrey Park 7 - Grand Final
It was just another day at the office for Eltham's State League team at Caulfield Park on Saturday where they soundly defeated Surrey Park
in their Grand Final match. Winning in every position they recorded an outstanding 17 - 7 victory, where in the first quarter the defence
did not allow Surrey's attack to trouble the scorers. By half time the large crowd of Lacrosse spectators sensed the opposition had nothing
to trouble the reining premiers. In the second half, Eltham's attack and midfield players Wayde Kendall, Nathan and Daniel Stiglich,
Darren Nicholas, Tim Fry, Richard Newall, Carl and Scott Menze and Ben Teasdale continued their domination scoring 10 goals to Surrey's 3.
At the other end of the field there was hardly a penetration into Eltham's solid wall off star defensive players. Goalie Steve Mackey played
his usual tight game and long pole defenders Terry Sparks, Keith Nyberg, Ben Fleming, Daniel Hall and Lachlan Ross hardly worked up a sweat.
And of course speedy centreman Cale Brooks dominated the face-offs which is so crucial in the game of Lacrosse. Head Coach was glowing in his
praise of this team which has now won four Premierships in succession.
