Crossword Genius

Catch score (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

net

I believe this is a double definition.

'catch' is the first definition.
(net can mean to catch)

'score' is the second definition.
(both can mean to obtain or secure)

(Other definitions for net that I've seen before include "Fish trap and type of goal" , "Mesh or web" , "Tennis equipment" , "Fish-catching mesh" , "Open-mesh material" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
