\"\"New champions were crowned at the 2024 Brian Baker<\/strong> Water Polo Tournament when Herschel Girls<\/strong> defeated Reddam House Constantia<\/strong> 14-11 in the final to claim top honours and the bragging rights in Makhanda on Sunday.<\/p>\n

While the sides battled it out at the Kingswood College<\/strong> pool, SACS<\/strong>\u00a0and Bishops<\/strong> were also in action in the final of the SAC Shield,<\/strong> a few kilometres away at St Andrew’s College.<\/p>\n

Herschel\u2019s focus, however, was entirely on their final as they took the fight to Reddam in the opening exchanges.<\/p>\n

There was little to separate the two after the first half, with Herschel taking a slender 5-4 lead into the dugout.<\/p>\n

In the final two chukkas, however, the girls from Claremont turned up the heat. With one to go, they led by two goals.<\/p>\n

That advantage was extended by a further goal in the final chukka. Reddam tried to claw their way back into the contest, but Herschel had done just enough and scored their final goal with a second left to clinch victory by a three-goal margin.<\/p>\n

Classification matches<\/strong><\/p>\n

Third place went to Roedean School<\/strong>, who signed off on positive note by breezing to a 14-7 win over Clarendon.<\/p>\n

The hosts, Kingswood College, completed their campaign with a 10-9 victory over Reddam House Bedfordview, while there were also wins for Diocesan School for Girls, Pearson High, and last year’s champions, St Stithians College, who finished in ninth spot.<\/p>\n
