Sunbury, happy to be back at home, has returned to the Bowls Victoria Pennant division 1, section 1 winners’ list.
Sunbury notched up an 82 (14)-68 (4) win against Brunswick, which also entered the match with a 1-1 record.
Sunbury’s David Glennon said the club had a little bit of reshuffle among its teams in a bid to turn things around after the loss to Fitzroy Victoria the previous week.
Lee Wesley skipped for the first time since coming to Sunbury.
His rink lost 19-18 on the last end of the
day.
“Lee is an ex-club champion at other clubs,” Glennon said. “He almost got us another two points today.”
The up-and-down start to the season for Mark Cowan’s rink continued. It lost 21-14.
Carla Krizanic’s rink remains unbeaten after a 22-16 win.
Todd Trewarne’s rink won 28-12. Dylan Filuk, who skipped in the opening two rounds, moved into Trewarne’s rink as the third player.
The win moves Sunbury to third, behind only the undefeated Moonee Valley and Melton teams.
“After picking up four points on the road last week … to get a good win with a healthy scoreline, we’re in a good position,” Glennon said.
Sunbury faces Essendon (2) this week.
The club’s fourth side was the only other winner for Sunbury on Saturday, with the sixth side’s fixture washed out.
Sunbury’s mid-week women’s pennant side had a good win against Whittlesea.
Sunbury won just one rink, but still came away with a 62 (12)-52 (4) win.
