Bendigo went into the grand final as hot favourite after defeating the Borough by 25, 5 and 7 shots in their three encounters this season.

Grand final day was a different story as the Borough surged to a commanding 29-shot win to claim its first midweek division one flag since 1967.

The Hawks won all three rinks in fine fashion.

None were better than the rink skippered by Kaye Rowe, who scored an 18-shot win over Sharon Koch.

Irene Godkin edged out Vicki Greenwood 25-20, while Janet Robertson completed the sweep with a 22-16 victory over Lee Harris.

"We've been trying for a long time, so to finally win a midweek division one grand final is pretty special,'' Rowe, who has played for Eaglehawk for 13 years, said.

"We made it to the grand final a couple of years ago, but didn't quite get over the line, but today everyone played really well.

"It was great teamwork across the three rinks today.

"Bendigo had beaten us the previous three times, but we were really confident we'd win today.

"We've been getting better and better each week and I thought our win over Kangaroo Flat (last week) really set us up.

"Today was the best we've played all year."

Rowe's premiership win was even more special considering her husband, Ray, played alongside her in her rink.

"Ray has won six weekend grand finals, but this is his first midweek grand final win, so that was nice,'' Kaye Rowe said.

"We have a few husband and wife partnerships in our team with Irene and Phil Godkin and Janet and Leigh Robertson...it makes it a lot of fun."

After some celebrations at the club on Friday night, Kaye Rowe said the attention turns to supporting Eaglehawk's weekend pennant team in Saturday's semi-final clash with Marong at Golden Square.
