This quarter seemed a struggle for both sides.

The ball was moving effectively down the court, but both sets of Goal Attack and Goal Shooter struggle to score, and the Comets managed to stay ahead.

As the final quarter started the passing pace began to speed up and Piranhas were able to catch up.
