The Northern Mystics overcame a sluggish start to defeat the ANZ Premiership's easy beats Tactix 71-47 on Wednesday night at Trusts Arena. It ended up being a huge blowout, with the Mystics posting their biggest win of the season.

Without a win this season and a minus 114 goal difference over their six games leading into this game, the Tactix weren't expected to be much of a challenge against Mystics team laden with Silver Ferns.
