Team Report :
Norfolk
77 Leicester 101 |
| The Leicester Monarchs
picked up another two match points after completing a
relatively easy victory in their British Premier League
fixture against Norfolk on Sunday. |
| The Monarchs were
forced to make several changes to the side that drew at
Bury the previous week but still had enough strength in
depth to contain the home side. |
| In the opening stages
there was very little difference between the two sides,
but as the Monarchs team began to settle on a track that
offered few overtaking opportunities, they gradually
pulled ahead to lead at the interval by eleven points. |
| David Hemsley and
Lukasz Nowacki both mastered the circuit to finish the
meeting unbeaten with Daniel Pike delivering another
competent performance in only his third match in the
colours of his new club, Leicester. |
| In the absence of the
Monarchs captain Norman Venson, the armband was handed
to Craig Marchant who responded with his best score of
the season and on this showing Leicester travel to
Sandwell on Sunday looking for another win to
consolidate their position at the top of the league
table. Report
