🏴 Reality check for Bennett as Sutherland take Tug o' War in a clean sweep 🏆

Rahiti Teokotai-White —

After several disruptions to the beginning of the Matthew Allen Cup for Term 2, we were finally able to have our second event for the term, Tug o' War. 

With Sutherland winning Cross Country, the opportunity was there for them to take another chunk out of Bennett's sizable term one lead. 

The event was contested in the Dome with a best of 3 competition for each of the year groups, with additional competitions between an all star team from each house (2 boys per year group) as well as an Argyle side versus some of our New Plymouth BHS billets ahead of the exchange.

Results were as follows: 

Year 9: Sutherland 2-0 Bennett

Year 10: Sutherland 2-0 Bennett

Year 11: Sutherland 2-0 Bennett

Year 12: Sutherland 2-0 Bennett

Year 13: Sutherland 2-0 Bennett

All Star: Sutherland 1-0 Bennett

Argyle 2-0 New Plymouth Invitational

A tough night to be in Bennett puts Sutherland back in the mix for the Matthew Allen Cup with the score at 10-6 after 8 events. The next event is General Knowledge.
