Senior Quad Tournament Wrap Up

This week has seen the first annual Senior Quadrangular Tournament between ourselves, Kavanagh College, St Peter's College and Verdon College - held this year in Gore. In an outstanding effort from all of our sporting teams we were delighted to be able to bring the tournament trophy (donated by Bishop Boyle) home to Oamaru.

Boys 1st XI Hockey:
Our first game for the day ended in a nil all draw against St Peter's College. The boys were missing a few regular players but the younger ones stepped up and played very well. Our second game against Kavanagh saw us win 1-nil. An exciting game with the team playing much better than the first match. The third and final game against Verdon was always going to be tough - however the boys played with determination and worked hard to secure a 3-nil win. Our points total for the day put us in first place! A very exciting day in beautiful weather conditions. The team played well together with some stand out work done by Logan Chandler, the two backs - Brendon Eade and Braden Grundy, Paul Stratton and our magnificent goalie William Harrison who did not concede any goals all day! Well done boys - you played with great team spirit and sportsmanship. Thanks also to Coreen Daily (manager) for all her assistance and organisation.

1st XI Football:
Congratulations to all of our Boys 1st XI Football Team who set the benchmark by scoring the most goals and conceding the least (for 11, against 4). A great effort by Michael Hannigan who score 6 goals in the game against St Peter's College.

On the field for the Girls 2st XI Football Team an outstanding effort saw Kulani Aplin score a hat trick against Kavanagh College.

Girls 1st XI Hockey:
Congratulations to our Girls 1st XI Hockey team who had a great game against St Peter's College, winning 2-1. Standout players for the match were Sinnead Flannery who scored an exciting first half goal, matched by Rose Harrison in the same half. The girls then worked hard as a team to hold off the St Peter's attack. Well done.
