ILLAWARRA will look to bounce back from a narrow loss when they take on last-placed Baulkham Hills in division five State League netball in Sydney tonight.

Coach Kerry Jones' troops suffered a 37-35 loss to Blue Mountains last weekend.

Illawarra were without key defender Morgan Davies, who is out for at least six weeks with a broken arm.

Blue Mountains led 9-6 at the first break and had extended that lead to six heading into the final quarter.

And while Illawarra fought back, they still fell just short.

In State League division two, ACTNA beat Illawarra 42-37 on Tuesday night.

Illawarra take on cellar dwellers Campbelltown next week.
