CRICKET
The 1st XI recently competed in the season opening GPS Twenty20 tournament. They were successful in making the final by defeating St Josephs, Sydney Boys High School and Scots College in the lead up games. Unfortunately a strong Riverview side defeated Newington in the final but it was a strong opening to a season that promises much. Congratulations must go to Lachlan Anderson (11/PR), Marcus Atallah (11/ME), James Holland (11/FL), Sam Wood (10/PR), Sam Smyth (10/LE), David Morris (12/KL), Rhys Andrew (10/MO), Josh Stewart (10/FL), Saahil Parekh (9/MO), Sam Lonergan-Stewart (11/PR), Ben Adams (10/FL), Fergus McKenna (9/JN), Lachlan Cannell (12/FL) and Sam Roby (9/JN).
Congratulations to (Milan Bhoola 10/MA) from the 4th XI who took a double hat trick against Scots College on Saturday 27 October. Milan’s hat trick played a major role in the 4th XI scoring an exciting victory.
