On Saturday morning, Gilbert wiped away the dirt from his stick and nailed a hat-trick.<\/p>\n<p>Up against <strong>Woodridge College<\/strong>, Selborne powered their way to a 6-0 victory, with Gibert responsible for half of their big goal haul. The other half belonged to <strong>Cade Kock<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The Amathole provincial player also scored against St Andrew&#8217;s in Selborne\u2019s previous outing, so he leads the East London school with four in two matches at the Tony Godding Festival.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pearson<\/strong> headed into day two on the back of a loss to the on-fire Grey College on the opening day. They were down, but not out, and <strong>Queen&#8217;s College<\/strong>, beaten 3-1 by Woodridge the previous day, presented an opportunity for Ignatius Malgraff\u2019s boys to get back on track.<\/p>\n<p>Sensing an opportunity, the Gqeberha-based outfit grabbed hold of it and subjected Queen&#8217;s to a 4-0 loss to add to their misery.\u00a0Later in the day, St Andrew\u2019s School, who have played one of the tougher schedules at the festival, delivered a good performance to hold Pearson to a 1-1 draw.<\/p>\n<p>The schedule, though, was not kind to Queen\u2019s College. They had to contend with Grey College after Pearson, and it didn\u2019t go well, with the Bloemfontein boys racing away to an 8-0 victory.\u00a0Grey continued on their merry way later in the day against <strong>Hudson Park<\/strong>, romping to a 6-0 win.<\/p>\n<p>Coach <strong>Wayne Coetzee<\/strong> and his charges have been very impressive thus far in 2024, and they&#8217;re unbeaten and untied, but tougher challenges lie ahead of them.<\/p>\n<p>Coming up from 20-23 March, Grey will join some of South Africa&#8217;s traditional hockey powerhouses as the <strong>Nomads u18 Tournament<\/strong>, which will be hosted at <strong>Maritzburg College<\/strong>, on <strong>Pape&#8217;s Astro<\/strong>, which <a href=\"https:\/\/test.ssschoolsplus.co.za\/friday-nite-lights-a-winner-as-maritzburg-college-and-clifton-share-the-spoils\/\">hosted its first-ever floodlit game<\/a> on Friday night.<\/p>\n<p>They will, most certainly, not be underprepared and they will be full of confidence that they can continue their winning form in Pietermaritzburg.<\/p>\n<p>Grey College completes their Tony Godding schedule with a showdown against <strong>St Andrew&#8217;s College<\/strong>. The school from Makhanda has quietly gone about defeating their opposition throughout the event &#8211; recording a 3-0 win over Voortrekker and a 5-0 defeat of Merrifield on Saturday &#8211; but their toughest test lies ahead of them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dale College<\/strong> finishes with a game against <strong>Linden High<\/strong>.
