Kearsney Easter Festival: Day 3 Match 4 Report
DURBAN HIGH SCHOOL 33–5 HOERSKOOL DURBANVILLE
In the fourth match of Day 3, Durban High School’s (DHS) 33-5 win over Hoërskool Durbanville ensured they finished their second consecutive KERF campaign with a 100% record.
Peter Engledow’s charges were boosted by tries from centres Zingce Simka (two) and hat-trick hero Nathan Aneke. They had opened their account with a 41-7 defeat of Hoërskool Rustenburg before downing Hoërskool Monument 32-17 on the final game of Day 2.
Durbanville meanwhile had followed up their big 66-22 victory over Dale College on Thursday with a disappointing 22-26 reverse against Rusties and were looking to get back to winning ways. As it happened, however, the Horseflies’ quality on both sides of the ball meant they were never really in it.
The prolific Simka opened the scoring before Valrhinio Olckers showed some great acceleration to get Durbanville’s only points of the encounter.
Simka bulldozed his way over for his fifth five-pointer of the festival not long thereafter, to make it 14-5 at halftime. But his midfield buddy Aneke was about to steal the show, with the No 13 blitzing away to score first after the interval in an absolute pearler of a first phase set-play.
Aneke added two more tries in the second-half as DHS cantered to victory.
