Apollo A vs. GKA

Apollo A vs. GKA was another can't miss game. It was the two finalist from last year. Apollo lead most of the way last year but GKA stole the victory. However this was 2011. Revenge was on the minds of the Apollo players after thinking what happened to them just 12 months earlier. This epic game was tone played at GK's home ground. Apollo won the toss and chose to bat. The first innings was score less for both teams. In the second innings Apollo scored 3 runs to GKA's 0. In the third innings Apollo yet again scoters 3 runs but GKA scored one run themselves. It would have been more runs if Eric hadn't taken a spectacular catch. GKA kept Apollo scoreless in the forth innings and Apollo defended their total not letting GKA score one ruin from that innings. It was 6-1 in Apollo's favor as they headed into the last innings. GKA kept Apollo scoreless in the final innings score 4 of their own, however a controversial decision made GKA lose their runs because of time! Apollo ran down the clock when the score was 6-5. However Apollo ran down the clock and GKA didn't get to finish their innings, so their fifth innings didn't count. The final score was Apollo 6- GKA 1. This was payback for Apollo as GKA beat them last year in the district final. It was a very emotional game.
