Missing the experience of Jess Parry and leadership of captain Georgia McDermott, the Grasshoppers struggled to compete against the Lions.

Shooter Bek Seeary-Pye was a standout for Navarre, scoring 14 of her side’s 17 goals.

The Grasshoppers now sit in ninth, just outside the top eight on percentage.
