OPEN 2'S ANNUAL ST PETER CLAVER COLLEGE CHALLENGE
Wednesday 28th March saw the Wavell Open 2’s shape up against St Peter Claver College from Ipswich, in what has become an annual challenge match between the two schools. With bragging rights on the line for another year the scene was set at Bishop Park (North’s Seniors) for an action packed game. Wavell opened the scoring and laid a solid foundation with good set plays and a solid kicking game allowing the good field position to be capitalised on and converted into points. Two soft tries allowed the visitors to stay in touch, but Wavell went to the break with the momentum and the scoreboard still on their side. Clear half time instructions from Coach Brentnall to stick to the game plan allowed the attack to keep Peter Claver on the back foot from the whistle. Outstanding up front defence from the forwards negated the opposition’s size advantage and allowed Wavell to finish at full time with a 28 to 10 victory. Player’s player, went to David “2 Try” Hammond who had a great game when he took the field with Jay Spletter converting 4 from 4 to finish with a perfect score sheet for the day. This lays a solid platform for the Wavell 2’s upcoming match at the big homecoming game to be held at 3:30p.m at Shawsportz on the 18th of April. See you there |
