Hardwick (3-0-18-2) and Paveley (2-0-14-1) were amongst the wickets for Team Sciver in a four wicket win over Team Knight.
There was another wicket for Hardwick (2-0-20-1) in the return meeting with Team Brunt who won by 34 runs.
Anderson had figures of 3-0-19-1, when she took the new ball, and 1-0-3-1 in the two meetings with Team Knight.
The Schools Games featured 10 sports including athletics, hockey, netball and wheelchair basketball.
