They got by <strong>Brandwag<\/strong> 14-5 in their Pool A opener and were extended by <strong>Framesby<\/strong> in the Cup semi-finals, winning 17-12.<\/p>\n<p>However, in the final, they brought their best and notched a 33-5 win over <strong>Graeme College<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Framesby topped Pool B, Graeme cruised through Pool C, and <strong>Nico Malan<\/strong> ruled in Pool D.

Marlow comfortably brushed aside Westering 33-0, while Brandwag won 19-7 against Grey 2, and Graeme College held on for a 17-12 win over Nico Malan.<\/p>\n<p>In the semi-finals, Grey saw off Marlow 29-7, while there was only one point in it in the other semi, with Graeme nudging out Brandwag by a 21-20 margin.<\/p>\n<p>With the title on the line, Grey High kept Graeme at bay to record a 17-0 victory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mzontsundu<\/strong> handed Port Rex a 17-0 loss to win the Bowl final, while Nico Malan won by 21 points against Muir in the Plate final.<\/p>\n<p><strong>u17 Results<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool A<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Grey High 14-5 Brandwag<br \/>\nMuir College 36-0 Mzontsundu<br \/>\nGrey High 45-12 Mzontsundu<br \/>\nMuir College 12-17 Brandwag<br \/>\nGrey High 36-7 Muir College<br \/>\nBrandwag 33-0 Mzontsundu<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Framesby 34-12 Daniel Pienaar<br \/>\nPort Rex 7-33 Andrew Rabie<br \/>\nFramesby 25-5 Andrew Rabie<br \/>\nPort Rex 5-22 Daniel Pienaar<br \/>\nDaniel Pienaar 10-26 Andrew Rabie<br \/>\nFramesby 19-14 Port Rex<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool C<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Graeme College 24-7 Marlow<br \/>\nOoskus Gim 0-26 Westering<br \/>\nGraeme College 34-7 Westering<br \/>\nOoskus Gim 0-14 Marlow<br \/>\nMarlow 10-5 Westering<br \/>\nGraeme College 41-0 Ooskus Gim<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool D<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nico Malan 21-5 Pearson<br \/>\nGrey High 2 17-21 Kirkwood<br \/>\nNico Malan 45-7 Kirkwood<br \/>\nGrey High 2 22-12 Pearson<br \/>\nPearson 29-19 Kirkwood<br \/>\nNico Malan 38-12 Grey High 2<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shield semi-finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mzontsundu 0-10 Port Rex<br \/>\nOoskus Gim 10-38 Kirkwood<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bowl semi-finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Muir College 33-12 Daniel Pienaar<br \/>\nWestering 17-50 Grey High 2<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plate semi-finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brandwag 19-17 Andrew Rabie<br \/>\nMarlow 19-24 Pearson<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cup semi-finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Grey High 17-12 Framesby<br \/>\nGraeme College 24-12 Nico Malan<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shield final<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Port Rex 17-21 Kirkwood<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bowl final<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Grey High 2 40-24 Muir College<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plate final<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brandwag 29-7 Pearson<\/p>\n<p><strong>3rd\/4th<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Framesby 19-17 Nico Malan<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cup final<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Grey High 33-5 Graeme College<\/p>\n<p><strong>u15 Results<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool A<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Port Rex 10-19 Westering (Pool A)<br \/>\nGrey High 49-0 Westering (Pool A)<br \/>\nGrey High 61-0 Port Rex (Pool A)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Muir College 7-7 Brandwag 2 (Pool B)<br \/>\nMarlow 38-7 Brandwag 2 (Pool B)<br \/>\nMarlow 19-0 Muir College (Pool B)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool C<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nGrey High 2 31-0 Mzontsundu (Pool C)<br \/>\nNico Malan 54-0 Mzontsundu (Pool C)<br \/>\nNico Malan 5-12 Grey High 2 (Pool C)<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Pool D<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Brandwag 25-0 Siyaphamaka All Stars (Pool D)<br \/>\nGraeme College 66-0 Siyaphamaka All Stars (Pool D)<br \/>\nGraeme College 7-5 Brandwag (Pool D)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cup quarterfinals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Grey High 38-14 Muir College<br \/>\nMarlow 33-0 Westering<br \/>\nGrey High 2 7-19 Brandwag<br \/>\nGraeme College 17-12 Nico Malan<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bowl semi-finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Port Rex 14-12 Brandwag 2<br \/>\nMzontsundu 17-5 Siyaphamaka All Stars<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plate semi-finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Muir College 12-10 Westering<br \/>\nGrey High 2 7-12 Nico Malan<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cup semi-finals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Grey High 29-7 Marlow<br \/>\nBrandwag 20-21 Graeme College<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bowl final<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Port Rex 0-17 Mzontsundu<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plate final<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nico Malan 33-12 Muir College<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cup final<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Grey High 17-0 Graeme College<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The hosts, Grey High School, made full use of their home ground advantage when they hosted The High School Sevens Series, proudly sponsored by Toyota, in Gqeberha on the weekend, with both their u17 and u15 teams finishing as champions.
