Boishaai pack of forwards are without the doubt the biggest on the schoolboy scene this year in South Africa, but the Jaquares had the pack of forwards to match them in the physical exchanges.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The scrumhalf of the Jaqueres, Jeronimo Gomez-Vara, was magnificent and kept the home team\u2019s defence true throughout the match. He dictated play with his decision-making from behind the scrum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">This was Paarl Boys\u2019 High\u2019s first defeat in South Africa since their final game of the 2014 season when they lost 10-11 to Marlow Landbou of Cradock in the final of Die Burger\u2019s competition. Boishaai did however lose against Christchurch Boys\u2019 High (36-38) during a tour through New Zealand last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Boishaai was unbeaten for a total of 51 games on South African soil before falling to the Jaquares. The team from Paarl still have a chance for sweet revenge against Christchurch Boys\u2019 High in the main match of the festival on Saturday. This will however now only be a small consolation price.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The home team\u2019s outside centre, Trent Sivertsen, was his side\u2019s best backline player. For the Jaquares their flyhalf, Exequiel Alegra-Chedied, played an instrumental part with his boot as he slotted three penalties and also converted his side\u2019s only try by centre Joaquin Oviedo.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Scorers:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Jaquares 19 (13) \u2013<\/strong> Try: Joaquin Oviedo.
