St Margaret’s qualify for nationals<br />
after South Island schools final<br />
FOCUS: St Margaret’s centre Ellese Haigh keeps her eyes on<br />
the target in their 51-27 win over Otago Girls’ High.<br />
• By Jaime Cunningham<br />
AN EXTRA-TIME thriller saw<br />
St Margaret’s College go down<br />
to Columba College in the<br />
South Island secondary schools<br />
netball final.<br />
St Margaret’s had a dominant<br />
tournament in Invercargill<br />
and have now qualified for<br />
the New Zealand secondary<br />
schools tournament in<br />
Auckland, which starts on<br />
October 3, after the 30-28<br />
loss. Christchurch Girls’ High<br />
(third), St Andrew’s College<br />
(fourth) and Villa Maria<br />
College (fifth) also clinched<br />
spots at next month’s New<br />
Zealand tournament by<br />
finishing in the top five.<br />
But for St Margaret’s, who<br />
were last year’s national<br />
finalists, the final loss was<br />
a disappointing end to the<br />
tournament.<br />
They recorded an impressive<br />
3<strong>07</strong> goals across their first six<br />
games while conceding just 133.<br />
St Margaret’s met rivals St<br />
Andrew’s in their third playoff<br />
match in two weeks in the<br />
semi-final, which the red-andwhites<br />
won 43-31.<br />
St Margaret’s looked like<br />
winning the final last Thursday<br />
after taking a 13-5 lead in the<br />
first quarter. Goal attack Ivy<br />
Brown was a standout, injecting<br />
energy on attack and defence in<br />
the first half.<br />
Despite a number of<br />
opportunities for Columba, St<br />
Margaret’s managed to hold on<br />
to a 19-14 lead at halftime.<br />
Clean intercepts gained<br />
them plenty of turnovers on<br />
defence, but unforced errors<br />
saw St Margaret’s take 2min to<br />
get their first goal of the third<br />
period.<br />
St Margaret’s had possibly<br />
their lowest quarter score of the<br />
season with just six goals.<br />
But for much of the final<br />
quarter, St Margaret’s held onto<br />
their slim lead.<br />
Then Columba soared to a<br />
28-27 lead with 36sec to go on<br />
the clock. St Margaret’s were<br />
able to keep their cool, with<br />
Brown netting a goal to even<br />
the match. But it wasn’t to be<br />
for St Margaret’s in extra-time.<br />
They were unable to add to<br />
their score, while Columba<br />
went in front by two for the first<br />
time in the game.<br />
Meanwhile, CGHS faced St<br />
Andrew’s to decide third place.<br />
CGHS were reeling from a<br />
44-17 loss to Columba, and<br />
came out firing to finish third<br />
with a 35-30 win. The last<br />
spot at nationals went to Villa<br />
Maria, who beat Southland<br />
Girls’ 33-32 in a thrilling<br />
fifth place playoff. The four<br />
Christchurch sides now turn<br />
their focus to the national<br />
tournament at Trust Arena,<br />
Auckland, which starts on<br />
October 3.<br />
