The Eagles Hammered at Lakesdie
Simon Gustafsson
The Eagles suffered a second defeat on the road as they found themselves comprehensively beaten, 55-36 by the Lakeside Hammers at the Essex Arena in the first rubber of the Easter double header on Good Friday afternoon.
Simon Gustafsson topped the visitors score chart with 13-points.
But save from the odd moment to celebrate, Timo Lahti’s stunning pass of Peter Karlsson to win heat 13 for example, in truth only he consistently proved a match for the pace and power shown by members of the host team.
Eight wins and a 37-point haul accrued fom heat leader trio of Davey Watt, Peter Karlsson and Lee Richardson and further brace of victories and a top scoring (14 paid 15-points) performance from reserve Kim Nilsson ensured that there were few pickings left for the Eagles as the match progressed.
