LAGUNA: After enduring a nervy first quarter, Singapore’s netball team made it two wins in as many matches at the 30th SEA Games after beating Brunei on Wednesday (Nov 27).
The bronze medallists at the last edition of the Games were no pushovers, but were handed a 62-38 defeat by Singapore at the Santa Rosa multi-purpose sports complex in Laguna.

But Natalie Milicich’s team managed to gradually pull away in the second quarter, going into the half ahead 25-20.

Singapore established a double digit lead for the first time in the third quarter as they continued to find their rhythm, stretching the lead to 43-28.
