S-Tech League: Cambs City A Ladies 1 March Town Ladies 4

The Hares put in a strong performance at Cambs City A, despite shuffling the pack with late withdrawals from the side.

Early on, Abby Grist set up Josie Turner with a smart finish on the turn to make it 1-0 and Eleanor McLeish hit a volley from an Emma Searle corner to make it two before half-time.

Searle again set up McLeish, who took two players on to make it 3-0.

On 80 minutes, McLeish scored her hat-trick with a clever lob over the keeper with a third assist from Searle.

In the dying minutes, City got a consolation goal.

March had two players, Chloe Rimmer and Sasha Beresford, making impressive debuts.

This result moves the Hares up three places in the league table, with two games in hand over most teams.
