wys hulle staal
DIE afgelope naweek het die landlopers van
Laerskool Mariepskop weer eens gewys dat
hulle yster in hulle are het.
Twee van die ingeskrewe spanne het as span
wenners uit die stryd getree en die leerders het
individueel gewys dat daar met hulle rekening
gehou moet word.
Die uitslae was soos volg: Seuns 0/7:
Machiel Bekker behaal 'n tweedeplek,
LeRiche Aitchison 'n vierde- en Reinhardt
Diemont 'n vyfdeplek om ook daarmee die
spankompetisie in te palm.
In die afdeling seuns 0/8 is HJ van der Nest
weer eens in die eer-
ste posisie, Jehan du
Plessis tweede,
Handré van der Merwe
derde en Wynand
Loubser sewende.
Ook hulle wen die
span kompetisie.
Uit die resultate
wat nou reeds behaal
is, is dit duidelik dat
hierdie knapies
manne is om mee
rekening te hou!
Leonine Gildenhuys
het 'n derdeplek
en haar span
maat , Jöhke Liversage,
'n sesdeplek
ingepalm.
Eric Gardiner en sy
suster, Ella, het elk 'n
vierdeplek behaal in
die seuns 0/12 en
meisies o/11 kompetisie.
Dit is beslis
duidelik dat die
Riepies vorentoe
dopgehou moet
word!

Girls start season on high note
THE Southern Cross College 1st girls' cricket
team travelled to Polokwane on last Saturday
to play their first inter-schools match of the
season. The team was hosted by their
opponents, Capricorn High, who has a
formidable record in girls' cricket.
The Southern Cross girls won the toss and
elected to bat first. The bowling was tight and
scoring was difficult. They managed to score
91 runs all out with Michaela Naude top
scoring with 20.

score. Their bowling was good and they lim-

ited the scoring by taking regular wickets. With
one wicket remaining Capricorn required just
8 runs to win.
With the first ball of her over Abigale Smit
conceded four runs and the Capricorn players
celebrated, needing only four more runs to
win. With her next ball Abigale clean bowled
Capricorns last batsman and it was the Southern
Cross girls' turn to celebrate.
They won the match by the narrowest of
margins, just four runs. Abigale Smit and
Michaela Naude were the pick of the bowlers,
taking four wickets each. Elizabeth Tseka
weighed in with the other two wickets.
Riepie-leerders leer oor insekte
Sy netjiese insekversameling, tesame met sy
uitgebreide kennis rondom die spesies, het die
leerders se aandag gevange gehou.
Alan was vroeër woonagtig in Zimbabwe,
maar is tans by die South African Wildlife
College werksaam as entomoloog. Voorwaar
'n interessante wyse om "natuurwys" te
word.
