Lodge, Christianburg secure wins in Guyoil 9th round

Lodge Secondary made a resounding return to the top of the Guyoil /Tradewind Tankers points table, while Christianburg-Wismar Secondary proved that they are better than Annandale.
In a day that was filled with thrills, Lodge Secondary set the momentum in the first match with a full onslaught on the struggling Queenstown Secondary.
Yet to lose an encounter, Lodge have managed to grab their top spot from Annandale Secondary, who held it for a few days.
Curt Edwards began the scoring for Lodge in the 5th minute, and Rickie Stewart wasted no time in pushing the score to 2-0 minutes later. In a period of superb striking by a youngster, Nicholas Trotman completed a hat-trick with goals in the 16th, 18th and 19 th minutes.
Alongside Dorwin George’s first two goals, the score sat at 7-0 by the half. Rasheed Evans and Shemroy Meyers had a piece of the pie in the second, and George returned to complete his hat-trick in the 50th for Lodge’s 10-0 win over Queenstown.
The second game was equally exciting, as second and third place teams Annandale and Christianburg-Wismar battled for the first time. Christianburg’s front runner Tyrese Lewis netted his first in the 13th and Andre Meyers did the same in the 18th, to create a 2-0 lead. The defence on both sides then became impenetrable as the score remained unchanged until the second half. Here, Omari Glasgow secured Annandale’s first goal, but the Linden boys showed their invincibility when Jermaine Mason collected two, and Lewis netted another for a shocking 5-1 win.
The encounter between the Bishops’ High School and Vergenoegen Secondary was also one to watch. Vergenoegen found themselves at a 2-1 advantage when the first half expired. Esan Heyner then contributed another to see the scores to 3-1, but some great playing on Bishops’ part saw the scores level at 3-3. The score remained locked for some time, until Ronaldo Macey got the edge for his team to secure the win.
In other results, Uitvlugt Secondary was awarded a walkover when St. Roses failed to show.
