Scores were locked at 0-0 at quarter-time, but without any bench, Wombats tired quickly as Wodonga ran away with a 7-0 victory.

Seth Albon and Dave McQuilton starred for Wodonga as Ethan Albon, Josh Pritchard and Brayden Mulrooney hit the scoreboard, while EJ Semple and Nicho Kilby were Wombats' best.

Wombats' division three goalkeeper Daryl Rowe also impressed after stepping up to the top grade.

Falcons were no match for a buoyant Magpies side, who finished 3-1 winners at Albury Hockey Centre.

A breakaway goal by Daniel Corby put Magpies on the board, followed by an early goal from Hamish Morrison in the second quarter.
