The Rats were able to keep with Horsham early on with the scores pretty even in the first quarter./

Horsham started to build a lead in the second term and were able to build on it for the rest of the game.

Ararat midcourters were unable to restrict the supply down to Horsham’s goal circle.

Horsham goal attack Isabella Geue starred at the end scoring 30 goals in a dominant performance.

Jade Ellis and Tess Jones swapped the goal shooter role between each other and shot 12 goals between them.

Rats coach Harmony Newman said she was proud of the team.

“It was a great effort to make it this far,” she said.
