Malick, St Benedict’s in SSFL top five clash

“That loss to Trinity College East woke us up.”
These were the words of Malick Secondary coach Anthony Bartholomew, as he sent a stern warning to his opponent St Benedict’s College ahead of Saturday’s (September 27) crucial clash between second and fifth on the standings in the Premier Division of the Secondary Schools Football League (SSFL) at St Mary’s College Ground in Port-of-Spain.Malick entered that match in the third position, seemingly overconfident and unaware of the challenges before them. However, Bartholomew, though disappointed by the 3-2 loss at the Arima Velodrome on Wednesday, said: “It made us know where we are.”The school, dominant in the North Zone in the 1990s, appears to have returned to the Malick of old with a team considered strong in all departments of the game, both Bartholomew and St Benedict’s coach Randolph Boyce said yesterday.“The players were overconfident, but tomorrow (today) we will be ready and confident against St Benedict’s. I think player-for-player we have more energy, more skill and will be able to outdo our opponents tomorrow (today), but then again, the game is played on the day,” Bartholomew explained.

St Benedict’s, like most of the other teams had to undergo a transition period by which they were not severely hard-hit by, due to an ongoing development programme.“St Benedict’s strength has always been discipline, teamwork, and the desire by each player to work for each other. This is what we are going to head into tomorrow’s (today’s) match with and hopefully, it would bring us the right result,” Boyce said.

Fatima stay on top, Benedict’s keep pace

CHAMPIONS and leaders Fatima and St Benedict’s College, both won yesterday to maintain the top two positions in the Premier Division of the Secondary Schools Football League.

Late goals by Jaheim Bailey and Caden Trestrail saw Fatima (16 points from six matches) winning a local derby 2-0 over a stubborn St Mary’s College, while Cameron Burke and Ethan Trotman both scored as St Benedict’s College handed Malick Secondary a second successive defeat, edging them 2-1, Josante Duncan scoring for the Morvant school.

Meanwhile, Vaughn Clement’s 39th minute goal saw Presentation College San Fernando (12 points) get past East Mucurapo Secondary 1-0, moving them up to fourth. They leapfrogged Arima North Secondary (ten), who dropped points in a 0-0 draw with mid-table Queen’s Royal College. Going into their match in third spot, unbeaten Arima North failed to win for the third consecutive match, this time against a hot-and-cold QRC at the Arima Velodrome. And San Juan North (ten) also won comfortably over the bottom team Miracle Ministries Pentecostal High School to move up to fifth.

Four of SSFL's top premiership teams clash in round 7

ROUND seven of the Secondary School’s Football League (SSFL) premiership promises to be an interesting one as four of the five top teams tussle among themselves for point-advantage as the tournament approaches its midway mark. Second placed St Benedict’s College (13 pts) play host to fifth ranked San Juan North (nine pts) at Mahaica Sporting Complex in Point Fortin while third placed Presentation College (12 pts) San Fernando welcome fourth spot Arima North (ten pts) at Manny Ramjohn Stadium in Marabella.Both matches kick off at 4pm and each team is intent on securing three points in hope of widening the gap atop the tightly contested standings.

However, league leaders and defending SSFL premier champions Fatima College (16 pts) may have the easier tie of the bunch as they travel to Westmoorings to face eighth place St Anthony’s College (six pts).
Fatima remain unbeaten after six matches, with five wins and one draw while the Westmoorings Tigers have won two and lost two from four matches.

‘Tigers’ outplay champs Fatima 2-1

Fatima College’s unbeaten streak in the Premier Division of the Secondary Schools Football League (SSFL) was snapped by a pack of vicious tigers—St. Anthony’s College at Westmoorings, on Wednesday. Goals on each side of the half by Jean-Marc Thomas and Andell Fraser were enough to earn the Tigers maximum points, despite a cheeky goal from Jahaem Bailey in the 68th minute. With two wins and as many losses to their name, the Tigers, playing at home, absorbed early Fatima attacks before their blood scent kicked in.

East Mucurapo 2 (Kadeem Morrison, Makai Simmons) vs Trinity College 1 (Dexter Croal)

Naps 6 (J Rodriguez 2, Xarion France, M Clement, I Joseph, J Cooper) vs Miracle Ministries 0
