In basketball, and it’s been a tough afternoon for Newcastle in the Waratah League, with the men losing to Bankstown by 15, while the women were hammered by 33.
Last night, Maitland’s men scored a dramatic win over the Norths Bears.
Trailing by one in the dying stages, Terrell Turner nailed a three-pointer with nine seconds left on the clock.
The Bears couldn’t claw back the difference, keeping the Mustangs in the hunt for the playoffs.
