There were fewer blowouts and matches were more tightly contested on the second day of the 19th edition of the Old Petrian’s U19 Girls Water Polo Tournament, being hosted by St Peter’s College. The event, which kicked off on Thursday, finishes on Sunday.
Several teams, who were buried under waves of double-digit margins of defeat, regrouped and worked their way back into the tournament. Only five teams – Rand Park, Springfield, Pretoria Girls, Wynberg and Reddam Helderfontein – are yet to register a first win in the 27-team event.
The big guns who made a splash on day one continued to build on those results.
Coach Alex Hawkins‘ Herschel, which boasts several Western Province u16 and u19 stars, including Kirsten Bottger and Anna Lieberman, swept the group with little trouble.
Pool A, which also has powerhouses St Stithians and Crawford in its ranks, is one of the toughest groups at the tournament. Herschel, the 2011 champions, were not unnerved by the reputations of the teams in their group, however, and they kept a clean record on their way to the top of the standings.
They prevailed 8-5 over the defending champions, St Stithians, in a tightly contested encounter, before trouncing Crawford and Alexander Road by double digits. The Western Cape outfit is a perfect six from six so far. They’re also six points clear of second-placed St Stithians, who have one game in hand.
Roedean is the only other undefeated team at the tournament. The Gauteng school has scored a mammoth 66 goals and conceded a miserly 13 on their way to the top of Pool B. The Garreth Prout-coached unit has followed the lead of their top scorer, SA Schools’ star Mia Loizides. Right now, Roedean looks like the team to beat.
Pool C has three big guns tied on 12 points each. Coach Nick Tinkler‘s Reddam Constantia leads the three-team pack because of a superior goal difference over St Dominic’s and Durban Girls College. The Hannah Banks-led unit dropped points when they faced off against St. Dominic’s, who beat them by four goals to two.
Gauteng Central u19A star Ruby Carlson was among the scorers for St Dominic’s, adding one more goal to her tally of seven from day one. She was key in St Dominic’s two victories over Collegiate and Pretoria Girls.
Kayla Andrews’ sensational form for DGC spilt into day two of the tournament. The KwaZulu-Natal sharpshooter scored five against Pretoria Girls and added two more to her tally when DGC breezed past the in-form St Dominic’s. Before falling to DGC, Coach Wade Marshall‘s team had been undefeated.
Reddam Bedfordview leads Pool D after an impressive showing that saw them win three of their four group matches to end day two on 15 points.
The Johannesburg outfit is not blowing teams out of the water, but they’re doing enough to secure victory. In their three games on Friday, they scored 14 goals and conceded four. However, their position at the summit is not secure. Clarendon and St Anne’s are hot on their heels. Both teams have 12 points and a game in hand.
