Ho\u00ebrskool Middelburg made it a close contest against Paul Roos<\/strong><\/a> on Saturday, and they again produced a ferocious effort against Paarl Gim. They went down, losing 10-19, but once again they impressed with their hard-nosed approach.<\/p>\n

Xandru van Rensburg<\/strong> made it five tries in three games to help Gimmies<\/strong><\/em> take the win.<\/p>\n

Paul Roos kept their record clean with a 29-5 victory over a Ho\u00ebrskool Rustenburg<\/strong> outfit which had kept Gimmies on their toes when the festival began on Friday night.<\/p>\n

Grey High earned a big win<\/strong><\/a>, blanking the Paarl locals, Boland Landbou,<\/strong> 38-0. Regular contributors Zachary Matthys<\/strong> and Joubert Bosch<\/strong>\u00a0were again on the scoresheet, while Inam Williams<\/strong> bagged a brace of tries.<\/p>\n

SACS<\/strong> outside centre Tylor Isaacs<\/strong> scored his second hat-trick in three games at the festival and converted all three tries in the Newlands school’s 21-0 victory over Worcester Gimnasium<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Isaacs has been tearing it up, crossing for 10 tries in his last five matches. He’s also tallied 26 points with the boot for a total of 76 at 15.2 points per game.<\/p>\n

After a tough loss in their second match to Grey High, Stellenberg High<\/strong> roared back with a 57-0 drubbing of Ho\u00ebrskool<\/strong> Robertson<\/strong>. Flyhalf Daniel de Bruyn<\/strong> led the way with 20 points, which came via two tries and five conversions.<\/p>\n

In one of the tightest matches of the day, Ho\u00ebrskool Waterkloof<\/strong> won an arm-wrestle against Ho\u00ebrskool Diamantveld <\/strong>by a narrow 7-0 margin.<\/p>\n
