The Meteors claimed the win 72-65 to sit atop of the Gippsland Men’s table, but less than four per cent clear of an equally impressive Maffra Eagles (2-0). The Warriors remain near the top with a 1-1 record and sit in third, and a far superior percentage to other 1-1 teams, Lakes Entrance Pelicans and Korumburra Wildcats.
The points were shared around by the successful Meteors, as Jayden Van Dyk (13 points), Christian D’Angelo (12) and Liam Fitzpatrick (11) all hit double-figure points.
