Round seven of the Goulburn Valley Hockey Association A-grade men’s season had Shepparton Youth Club host Echuca-Moama at Shepparton Regional Hockey Complex.
The Saturday afternoon clash was tight, but eventually, the visitor proved too strong for Shepparton Youth Club, cruising to a 1-3 victory.
Shepparton Youth Club’s Callum Bailey was the sole goal scorer for his side.
Echuca-Moama’s victory was made more impressive given that the last time the two teams faced was on Echuca-Moama’s home pitch and resulted in a five-goal win for Shepparton Youth Club.
It was also Echuca-Moama’s first win for the season.
Seven rounds in and the A-grade ladder order reads Strikers in first, Shepparton Youth Club in second and Echuca-Moama trailing in third.
Next round will have Strikers travel to play Echuca-Moama.
