\"\"Boys<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

It was noted in the report on Monday’s action<\/strong> <\/a>that the Western Province A<\/strong> u16 A boys’ team had averaged 16 points a game on their way to a place in the quarterfinals of the Schools Water Polo South Africa Inter-Provincial Tournament<\/strong>, at St John’s College<\/strong>,\u00a0in Johannesburg. So, what did they do in Tuesday’s quarterfinals and semi-finals? They fired in exactly 16 goals in both games.<\/p>\n

In the quarters, Noah Reiback<\/strong> rattled the cage with five goals, and he was matched by James Swart<\/strong>, as WP A cruised to a 16-4 win over Northerns A<\/strong>. Then, in the semis, Swart had six and Reiback had four as WP A dumped Central Gauteng A<\/strong> 16-7.<\/p>\n

Swart tops the goal scoring charts with 26, while Reiback is in second place with 20. Unsurprisingly, WP A has been the top scoring team of the IPT thus far, with 96 to their name. That’s 23 more than the team they’ll meet for the title, KwaZulu-Natal A<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

KZN A’s Max Mills<\/strong> is fifth on the individual scorers’ chart, with 16, but he scored only one in their quarterfinals win over Central Gauteng B<\/strong>. Nonetheless, KZN won easily, 13-5.<\/p>\n

In the semi-finals, Mills and Henry Harker<\/strong> scored three each as KZN A overwhelmed Buffalo City<\/strong> 13-1.<\/p>\n

From early in the event, it was clear that WP A and KZN A were the class of the field. Now, they’ll have the opportunity to prove which team is number one when they contest the final at 10:45 in St David’s Marist Inanda<\/strong>‘s Jubilee Pool<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Girls<\/strong><\/p>\n

KZN A got one over Western Province A<\/strong>, but that was in the girls’ semi-finals at Kingsmead College <\/strong>on Tuesday, where KZN A claimed a narrow 8-7 win despite a magnificent six-goal showing from Province’s Micha <\/span><\/strong>Danilewitz<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Danielwitz, Central Gauteng A<\/strong>‘s June Stander<\/strong>, and Jessica Gray<\/strong>, of Western Province B<\/strong>, lead all goal scorers with 16 each.<\/p>\n

Earlier, KZN A won 11-3 against Zimbabwe<\/strong> in the quarterfinals, while Western Province A had Western Province B’s number, picking up a comfortable 13-1 victory.<\/p>\n

In another A vs B clash, Central Gauteng A beat Central Gauteng B<\/strong> 13-1. Eden Districts<\/strong> completed the semi-finals’ line-up after a stirring 8-7 win over Nelson Mandela Bay.<\/p>\n

Their brave title challenge ended in the final four where Central Gauteng A beat them 12-6.<\/p>\n

The home side faces KZN in the title decider at 09:35 in the Jubilee Pool<\/strong>, at St David’s<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
