College sport: St Peters catch out St Johns

Rain may have delayed play but it didn't stop St Peters from edging St Johns to claim the Dave Hoskin Trophy for the fifth time.

St Johns made a promising start to the match, which was reduced to 40 overs, and had their opponents scrambling at 3/35 after 10 overs.

But St Peters captain Andrew Sclater stepped up to the mark and produced an innings of 112 not out helping his side to 210/6.

St Johns quickly settled into their work, with Aidan Stevensen smashing 47 of 38 balls.

After 10 overs, St Johns were 62/1, which they extended to 83/3 after 20.

However, the St Peters bowlers came into their own - Josh Nelson (2-61) got Cameron Smith then Ben Chubb to sky shots where they were both caught by Sclater. Sclater was the man of the moment a few minutes later, pocketing another spectacular catch.

The first ball of the last over saw St Peters claim the final wicket and a nine-run victory.

In other matches, Cambridge beat Morrinsville by six wickets and Hamilton Boys High beat Matamata College by five wickets.
