Stubbs led the way, top-scoring for her side.<\/p>\n<p>In their first game, Roedean faced a stiff challenge from Makhanda&#8217;s <strong>Diocesan School for Girls (DSG)<\/strong>, but they pulled off a 6-5 win. <strong>Stubbs<\/strong> netted twice, while <strong>Esm\u00e9 du Plessis<\/strong>, <strong>Gabriella Morrell<\/strong>, <strong>Emma Pelicot<\/strong>, and <strong>Taylor Billett <\/strong>also got onto the score sheet<\/p>\n<p>DSG&#8217;s vice-captain <strong>Mia Jenner<\/strong> matched Stubbs by scoring twice, and <strong>Lucy Rutherfoord<\/strong> struck three times, but that was not quite enough for the Eastern Cape side.<\/p>\n<p>In their second game, coach <strong>Siyabonga Guzana<\/strong>&#8216;s Roedean came out guns blazing and roared to an 11-3 win over the hosts, <strong>St Peter&#8217;s College<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Again, <strong>Stubbs<\/strong> led by example, scoring three goals. She was well backed up by <strong>Gabriella Morrell<\/strong>, the team captain <strong>Emma Pelicot<\/strong>, and <strong>Taylor Billett<\/strong>, who all found the back of the net twice. <strong>Sophie Wilcox<\/strong> and <strong>An\u00e9 du Plessis<\/strong> completed the scoring for Roedean.<\/p>\n<p>In their last outing of the day, they cruised to another comfortable win, handing <strong>Clarendon High School for Girls<\/strong> a 9-2 defeat as <strong>Stubbs<\/strong> and <strong>Morrell<\/strong> recorded hat-tricks again.<\/p>\n<p>While the score sheet might suggest otherwise, Clarendon gave their opponents a good fight. <strong>Meka Loots<\/strong> and <strong>Holley Jacoby<\/strong> were rewarded with goals for the East London school.<\/p>\n<p>In Pool B, <strong>Hudson Park High School<\/strong> leads the pack following victories over <strong>Rand Park High School<\/strong> and <strong>Collegiate Girls&#8217; High School<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>They crushed Rand Park 18-0, with <strong>Kayden Glasgow<\/strong>&#8216;s four goals leading all scorers. <strong>Slayde Herman<\/strong> and <strong>Eva Moore <\/strong>bagged hat-tricks, while <strong>Mackenzie Goss<\/strong> and <strong>Sarah Barratt<\/strong> chipped in with two goals apiece. <strong>Kara Batting,<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Amber Preston, Mia Smit<\/strong>, and <strong>Erin Batting<\/strong> also scored.<\/p>\n<p>It wasn&#8217;t a flawless day for Hudson Park, however. They put up a strong showing against <strong>Reddam House Bedfordview <\/strong>in their third game, but came off second best, suffering a hard-fought 7-9 defeat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>St Stithians College<\/strong> impressed, winning their three matches emphatically. They began their day with a 21-2 romp against\u00a0<strong>Pretoria High School for Girls<\/strong>. <strong>Kingswood College<\/strong> was the next to fall, with <em><strong>Saints <\/strong><\/em>running out 10-3 winners, and <strong>St Cyprian&#8217;s<\/strong> had to bend the knee, too, as St Stithians took their haul to 41 goals for the day after a 10-1 victory.<\/p>\n<p>Pool D&#8217;s matches were evenly contested. Five teams won one game only, although <strong>Kingsmead College<\/strong> was the only side to play three matches.<\/p>\n<p>It was very interesting! The defending champions, <strong>Herschel<\/strong> edged out Kingsmead by a single goal, but lost to <strong>Durban Girls&#8217; College (DGC)<\/strong> in a shootout. Kingsmead, meanwhile, comfortably beat <strong>Springfield Convent School<\/strong> but they needed a shootout to sneak by <strong>Reddam House Helderfontein<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Both <strong>Reddam Helderfontein<\/strong> and <strong>Springfield <\/strong>finished the day winless, but they&#8217;ll have three opportunities each for victory on Friday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DAY 1 RESULTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>POOL A<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>St Peter&#8217;s 4-5 Crawford Lonehill<br \/>\nDSG Makhanda 5-6 Roedean<br \/>\nClarendon 7-3 Crawford Lonehill<br \/>\nSt Peter&#8217;s College 3-11 Roedean<br \/>\nDSG 15-4 Rustenburg<br \/>\nRoedean 9-2 Clarendon<br \/>\nDSG 11-3 St Peter&#8217;s<br \/>\nAlex Road\u00a03-13\u00a0Clarendon<\/p>\n<p><strong>POOL B<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rand Park 0-18 Hudson<br \/>\nSt Anne&#8217;s 8-6 Reddam House Bedfordview<br \/>\nReddam House Constantia 12-1 Wynberg<br \/>\nHudson Park 6-4 Collegiate<br \/>\nReddam House Bedfordview 18-0 Rand Park<br \/>\nWynberg 4-12 St Anne&#8217;s<br \/>\nReddam House Constantia 5-3 Collegiate<br \/>\nHudson Park 7-9 Reddam House Bedfordview<\/p>\n<p><strong>POOL C<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kingswood 4-3 St Mary&#8217;s Waverley<br \/>\nPretoria Girls 2-21 St Stithians<br \/>\nStirling 3-6 Chisipite<br \/>\nKingswood 3-10 St Stithians<br \/>\nSt Cyprian&#8217;s 2-4 St Mary&#8217;s Waverley<br \/>\nChisipite 16-0 Pretoria Girls<br \/>\nStirling 3-5 Kingswood<br \/>\nSt Stithians 10-1 St Cyprian&#8217;s<\/p>\n<p><strong>POOL D<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Springfield 2-7 St Dominic&#8217;s<br \/>\nKingsmead (1) 3-3 (0) Reddam House Helderfontein<br \/>\nDGC 6-3 Pearson<br \/>\nHerschel 4-3 Kingsmead<br \/>\nReddam House Helderfontein (2) 4-4 (1) Springfield<br \/>\nPearson 4-3 St Dominic&#8217;s<br \/>\nDGC (5) 6-6\u00a0(4)\u00a0Herschel<br \/>\nKingsmead 12-1 Springfield<\/p>\n<p><strong>FIXTURES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Friday, 21 February<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Wahoo Aquatic Centre<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>07:00 &#8211;
