After the strange round with no score, the next roll was very straightforward. Hwang and Burton took their places, both releasing their stones with confidence. The red marble made its way towards the goal, making a looping pattern before stopping mere inches from the target; the green stone had little hope to beat that position, and sure enough, it landed several inches further away. "Gryffindor scores," Tanner announced.

Atreyu and Ashcroft were back in action for Gryffindor and Slytherin respectively. The green stone was expertly thrown, rolling just the right length and coming to rest just a finger's breadth from the Jack Stone. The red stone would normally have been good enough to score, but not this time. "Two points to Slytherin!" Tiara exclaimed, inclining her head in recognition of the excellent shot.

It was fifth year versus second year as Hwang and Duchannes stepped up to do battle. But after the marbles were tossed, it was the Slytherin player with gob in her hair. "At the end of the third round, the score stands at Slytherin 4 and Gryffindor 11. On to the fourth round! Players take your places, please."

Duchannes was back at it for Gryffindor, while Hensley stepped into the ring for Slytherin. The latter's marble was a looping roll with impressive spin; the red roll was much more straightforward, and also much more accurate. The smelly liquid shot onto the Snake's robes and hair, narrowly avoiding her face. "One point to Gryffindor," said Tiara.

The sixth year Gryffindor Atreyu now took on the fourth year Slytherin Ashcroft. The green roll cam first, wending its way towards the goal a bit too quickly, going past by a good six inches. Atreyu's stone looked to be too slow at first, but it landed approximately even with the green. Tiara stooped down to look more carefully before issuing her call. "Points to Gryffindor! The score is 14 to 4 heading into the last roll."

The same participants stayed on for both houses. This time the red stone was released first, closely followed by the green. The result was the same, however: smelly gob shot into Cilla Ashcroft's face. "Three points to Gryffindor! The score is 17 to 4 with three rolls left."

It was Atreyu again for Gryffindor, but Slytherin decided to switch out. The seventh year Zhenya Burton was chosen to replace Ashcroft. Atreyu remained victorious, however, his shot landing about an inch closer to the Jack Stone. "One point for the lions. Only two rolls left!"

Last question of the match!
 
Jenna and Jackson got switched in for their houses for the second to last roll. The two swung their shooters and released their stones. The green shot forward first around a series of obstacles before it stopped without warning. Luckily no gob was released. The red stone surpassed its opponent and 3 more obstacles before it stopped for the points.

"2 points to Gryffindor!" Leo declared.

And finally they had arrived at the final throw of the match. First year Lancelot McWitty was given the honor for Gryffindor. His red marble rolled around an obstacle, then spun slightly to head right towards the Jack Stone. It came to a stop mere millimeters away. Slytherin, knowing they could not hope to match such a shot, decided to concede defeat.

"Gryffindor wins!" Tiara announced with a congratulatory smile. Which only left the announcement of player of the match. "Today's player of the match is.." Here she paused briefly for dramatic effect. "..fifth year Gryffindor Jackson Hwang! Well done. Great game Gryffindor and Slytherin both. And thank you to all the fans for watching the consolation match today!"

Final Match Standings:
Gryffindor 23 points - Winner!
Slytherin 4 points

Player of the Match: Jackson Hwang
