Maritzburg College suffered their first loss of the season at the hands of Grey High School at the Nomads festival which has given Jeppe the chance to make ground on the KZN team and share the top spot at this stage of the season.
College who have long been a powerhouse of school hockey were up against some of the strongest teams in the country at Nomads and were held to a draw by Jeppe and then went down to Grey HS in their last match of the tournament. Grey HS seemed to experience a mixed bag of fortunes drawing 3 of their matches, losing to KES and St John’s before finally winning against Maritzburg College.
Jeppe however are in superb form at present and can lay claim to being unbeaten so far this season but probably can look back at the 1-1 draw to Kearsney College at the KES festival as a match that could have seen them occupying the No.1 spot alone if only they had clinched the win.
Rondebosch, PRG and Clifton are likewise unbeaten and this could well be the most fiercely contested race to the top we has seen for many seasons.
