Soccer
BY half-time, the score sat at a stalemate of 0 – 0 and the match up between Kearsney College and Westville Boy’s High School was considered as an evenly matched game. Kearsney’s goalkeeper, Clayton Yeatman, did exceptionally well in goals and kept the visitors in the game.
Shortly after the break, Kearsney scored from a shot from the left-hand side into the back post, to put them at 1 – 0. Kearsney then obtained a penalty that the Westville goal keeper saved brilliantly.
