The final game of the evening, at 19:00hrs, will be an all-Region One clash, as Waramuri Top Primary and Regional Champions Santa Rosa Secondary duke it out for a spot in this week’s semifinal.
With some prolific scoring displayed thus far, Santa Rosa’s Roy Vansluytman and Darius Williams; Dolphin Secondary’s Gerry Burnette and Jequan Cole; St. Ignatius’s Romel Ernest; Waramuri Top’s Bruce Williams; Carmel’s Ian Daniels, and Charlestown’s Tyler Lyle will be some of the talents to look out for on the field today.
