Manor's victory was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-11. As for Norview, they have been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 6-10 record this season.
Manor might still be hurting after the 11-1 defeat they got from Norview when the teams last played back in April.
