Tennis Triumphs
On Saturday 5 March St Stithians Girls' College played St Mary's in the finals of the prestigious Girls' Schools Inter High A tennis tournament.
Both schools played exceptionally well and St Mary's went through as the winners after a draw in the finals. The rules indicate that the scores of the 1st couple determine the winner. St Stithians Girls' College 2nd couple won on a tie break and St Mary's 1st couple won on a tie break giving them the edge and the overall trophy this year. It was a spectacular day for tennis in general and a very closely contested match.
Jessica Assenmacher, Sasha Tarubereka, Tayla van Eck (Captain) and Caitlyn Claasens with proud manager Ms Sophia du Plessis TIC
