Western Wildcats moved alongside Edinburgh University in the top four with a 2-0 win over Erskine Stewart`s Melville at Auchenhowie, Emma Johnston scored from open play while Kaz Cuthbert got the other from a penalty corner.
The Wildcats have now earned 16 points, twelve ahead of Dundee Wanderers who sit in fifth. Both Western Wildcats and Edinburgh University are two points shy of Grove Menzieshill in second place, who also have a game in hand.
