Interschool Sport
Interschool sport has been in full swing to start the year with teams going out each day of competition from Year 9 through to Year12.
Senior Cricket
On a hot Thursday, our senior cricket team went off to Batterham reserve to play cricket. We were to have three games, consisting of 10 overs per innings. The schools we were to play included Rowville, Upwey and Wantirna. Out of our school most players it as there first time.
Our first game we played Rowville. We batted first however we didn’t score many runs. Rowville showed there skill and chased it down very quick, they were clearly the dominant team. Our next game we once again batted first with Sustina and Iasintaopening the batting.
They gave it a good go however they both got caught which was unlucky. Kaiden and Luke put on a good partnership, with Kaiden hitting 2 sixes and Luke scoring nice boundaries. That game we ended up scoring approximately 60 runs, it was a great effort and we only lost a couple wickets. Our last game we played Wantirna, they were very good and we struggled to score against them. In the end, we unfortunately didn’t win any of our games but was great that everyone put in a big effort to play.
