HE’S OFF: Jordan<br />
Jenning in full flight.<br />
CBHS keep top spot with win over St Andrew’s<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High<br />
dug deep to stay top of the<br />
table with a two-point victory<br />
over close rival St Andrew’s on<br />
Saturday.<br />
A blazing run from replacement<br />
fullback Rico Syme, who<br />
debuted off the bench with<br />
<strong>20</strong>min to go, drew the match 23-<br />
23 with a 68th minute try.<br />
Alex Harford then kicked the<br />
conversion to snatch a 25-23 victory<br />
at the death, helping CBHS<br />
to retain their top spot on the<br />
UC Championship table.<br />
Syme said when he saw he only<br />
had one player between him and<br />
the try line, he was confident he<br />
would go all the way.<br />
“I knew that if I got on the outside<br />
of him I was going to score.<br />
Since it was the winning try it<br />
felt pretty unreal,” he said.<br />
St Andrew’s were reduced to<br />
14 players when fullback Tom<br />
Anderson was sent behind the<br />
sticks for a high tackle in the<br />
66th minute leaving an overlap<br />
in the backline.<br />
Manager Rob Smith said it was<br />
a real testament to playing for<br />
the full 70min.<br />
He said it was part of the culture<br />
in the squad to play right up<br />
until the final whistle and past it<br />
if need be.<br />
“He [Syme] put the foot down<br />
at the right time, didn’t he? It is<br />
really great to see the boys keep<br />
going after it right up until the<br />
final minutes,” Smith said.<br />
In other Saturday games, St<br />
Bede’s were thrashed by Nelson<br />
College 62-17, while Burnside<br />
had a tough day at the office<br />
against Timaru Boys’ High losing<br />
66-5.<br />
St Thomas will look to bounce<br />
back after a 24-32 loss to CBHS<br />
in round 7 when they take on<br />
Roncalli today.<br />
Attack coach Paul Burton said<br />
they have been happy with the<br />
past month’s results, they may<br />
not be wins but they are heading<br />
in the right direction he said.<br />
“We will look to continue our<br />
improvement, stick to our game<br />
plans and look for consistent<br />
performances,” he said.<br />
He said the boys are excited to<br />
play today.<br />
The game will be played at<br />
Middlepark Rd at 12.45pm.<br />
