The first game was very close and finished 0-0 with Loretto. SCEGGS had some good chances but just couldn\u2019t convert them into goals. The second game the team managed a 3-0 win against St Mary\u2019s Cathedral College. Daisy Grice scored two goals and Klemintine Chylek scored one goal. The team could have scored more if it wasn\u2019t for some excellent saves by the opposing goalkeeper. Game three was against Mater Dei and the team lost 1-2.<\/p>\n<p>The team played well, but the opposition were just too strong on this occasion, and despite being up 1-0 with a goal from Ali Buchanan, the team conceded in the last few minutes. The last round game was against Shire Christian. The team were down 0-2 but never gave up, and two goals from Alice Beaumont and one from Daisy Grice helped the team to a 3-2 win. SCEGGS had a final playoff game for 3<sup>rd<\/sup> and 4<sup>th<\/sup>. The team drew 1-1 with Shire Christian after a goal from Daisy and went to penalties, where they won 2-0.<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to the team for an excellent competition and special mention to Eliza Wilcsek and Daisy Grice for their performances on the day.
