College wins rugby league

 

The Brisbane Water Seconday College (BWSC) open boys rugby league team played away to defeat The Entrance on May 8.

A slow start saw the boys defending grimly for the first 15 minutes of the game, with play rarely out of their own half.

During this period, the home side were kept scoreless.

With some team changes and more enthusiasm, due in particular to Daniel Fitzgerald joining the side, the BWSC side soon hit top gear running in three quick tries.

Shannon Stuart and Aaron Hamstra were posing a real problem for the Entrance defence.

A couple of tries early in the second half to made the score 28-0 and sealed the game for BWSC.

The Entrance, spurred on by a large vocal crowd on the hill, had other ideas.

Two quick tries got the home side into the game and the score was locked at 28-8 for most of the second half.

A bit of Luke McDonald magic added two more tries for BWSC late in the game, making the final score 36-8.

The next game will be a home game for BWSC against Kincumber High.

Try scorers for BWSC were Shannon Stuart (2), Luke McDonald (2), Aaron Hamstra, Jim Manning, Lachlan Hardwick, Stuart Coyle, with Justin Maskill kicking two goals.
