Boland<\/strong> kicked off day two of the 2025 LSEN Week<\/strong>, at Ho\u00ebrskool Hoogenhout<\/strong> in Bethal<\/strong>, with an emphatic 40-8 win over Free State<\/strong> on Monday, led by an outstanding performance from Ismael Wiemers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The Weskus SOS<\/strong> outside centre starred on both attack and defence to deservedly bag the man of the match award.<\/p>\n

A fired-up South Western Districts<\/strong> side proved to be too much for the Blue Bulls<\/strong> to handle and the team from the Western Cape powered their way to a 38-20 win.<\/p>\n

Van Kerval<\/strong> outside centre, Brendan-junior Kasanya<\/strong>, ran in a superb hattrick to lead his side to victory, which earned him the man of the match award.<\/p>\n

The Pumas<\/strong> bounced back from their 7-37 loss to the Griffons<\/strong> in their opener on Saturday, outplaying the Sharks<\/strong> 29-7<\/p>\n

Tighthead prop WH de Klerk<\/strong> proved to be a handful for the boys in black and white. He challenged them with his physicality and also twice broke through for tries. Man of the match award earned!<\/p>\n

The Leopards<\/strong>, meanwhile, pulled off an exciting 50-40 victory over the Griffons<\/strong> in a 90-point thriller.<\/p>\n

Man of the match, Oom Paul<\/strong> scrumhalf, Hansie Visser<\/strong>, pulled the strings for the Leopards, distributing the ball with speed, which enabled his side to exploit space, and that led to an astounding eight tries.<\/p>\n

Last year’s unofficial champions, Eastern Province<\/strong>, knocked the Valke<\/strong> out of the sky, rampaging to a 50-10 victory.<\/p>\n

Westview right wing, Rylan Hawkins<\/strong>, used his raptor-like speed to fly through the defence for a brace of tries, which secured him the man of the match honours.<\/p>\n

Western Province<\/strong> outplayed the Lions<\/strong>, cruising to a 55-10 win, highlighted by some brilliant performances from multiple individuals.<\/p>\n

None of them shone brighter than Jan Kriel<\/strong> number 10 Yusuf Hannibal<\/strong>. He walked away with the man of the match award, thanks to the assured manner in which he directed his team from flyhalf. He also crossed for a brace of tries and landed a penalty.<\/p>\n

The final day’s matches, on Tuesday, include an unofficial final between Eastern Province and Western Province for a second year in succession.<\/p>\n
