Breathless.
Loughborough Lightning lead at the break by slenderest of margins in a PWR opener that has had eight tries in the first half.
And typically it ends with drama – two scores after 40 minutes.
First Lauren Torley dotted down to give Quins the lead for the first time in the match, but with Claudia Pena’s conversion striking the post and going agaonisingly wide.
Before the visitors ran up the other end and got their noses ahead through Sadia Kabeya, with Helen Nelson kicking her third from three to take a two-point lead into the break.
