SOCCER
The 1st team game started with a high intensity from hosts Michaelhouse, who caught the Kearsney defenders off guard and scored within the first few minutes. Kearsney responded with a number of attacks, but were unable to convert their numerous chances into goals.
In the second half, both sides competed for dominance of the midfield, and the game stagnated into one of possession lost and gained. Eventually, Kearsney’s Simnene Kubheka had a chance in the opposition big box and, seeing the Michaelhouse goalkeeper flat footed, calmly put the ball into the net.
The game ended 1-1, with both sides feeling they could have won the game, had they taken their chances.
GOLF
Kearsney was victorious at the recent KZN Schools Golf Championships held at Victoria CC.
After the first day, they were trailing Westville by two shots and then played well as a team on Day 2, to win by 19 shots.
Special mention must be made of Troy Taylor, who finished tied 3rd, as well as captain Reece Brown and Matthew Gouws, who finished tied 4th.
These three players laid a successful foundation, with great support from the remaining team members – Tyron Keylock who tied 10th, Asher Hollister tied 17th and Adam Gray.
