Coach Louise Conradie’<\/strong>s side was pushed hard but they held off Northern Blues A<\/strong> to claim a 2-1 victory.<\/p>\n

Frank Cassidy opened the scoring in the first chukka and Camryn Corner<\/strong> made it 2-0 in the second chukka.\u00a0However, Northern Blues pulled one back shortly after the break, with Lenique Vogel <\/strong>striking. Province’s defence held sway the rest of the way, but Vogel’s goal was the first time they had conceded in three matches.<\/p>\n

With three wins from three outings, Province tops Pool A, but they’re not alone, KZN Coastal A also sports a perfect record of three from three.<\/p>\n

On Saturday, the KZN side handed the hosts, Southern Free State A<\/strong>, a 2-0 defeat. It took them until the second half to get onto the scoresheet, but, after Chelsey Woolf\u00a0<\/strong>slotted from a penalty corner, within a minute they were two goals to the good when Codie Bestbier<\/strong> scored.<\/p>\n

Through three games, Coastal has netted nine times without giving up a goal. Western Province has exactly the same goal difference, having scored one more goal.<\/p>\n

In a KZN derby, KwaZulu-Natal Inland A<\/strong> handed KwaZulu-Natal Coastal B<\/strong> a 4-1 loss. It was only 1-0 at the break, with Mia Howie<\/strong>‘s penalty corner strike separating the teams.<\/p>\n

Then, Kate van Breda<\/strong> bagged a brace in the third chukka to give Inland A some breathing room, and Holly Hofmeyer<\/strong> made it 4-0 before\u00a0Angela Bingham<\/strong> netted a consolation goal for Coastal B five minutes before the end of the game.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Western Province faces Southern Free State A, whose record is one and one after their loss to KZN Coastal A.<\/p>\n
