The 36-28 victory was piloted by goal attack Shaquilla Davis who sank 24 of her 43 attempts and goal shooter Zakiya Kirton who netted 12 from 23 at the Netball Stadium

Newbury celebrated victory on Monday night after edging out Signia UWI Blackbirds ‘B’ to grab their first win of the league, while the Blackbirds recorded their third loss.
