ST ANN: In one of the most important games in Zone ‘C’ Tuesday, Brown’s Town ground out a 1-0 win over favourites William Knibb High at Addison Park. Both teams had talented players but especially in the first half, there was a lot of nervous moments. The coaches will surely go back over some technicalities, including throwing the ball as there were 12 foul throws between the two teams.
Brown’s Town took the three points with a goal from Dysean Campbell in the 20th minute.
Elsewhere in St Ann, Ocho Rios High another serious contender for one of the two Inter-Zone places in the ‘Zone of Death’ smashed Discovery Bay High 15-0 at Noranda Bauxite field, Discovery Bay.

IN ST MARY, Zone I Tacky crushed Carron Hall 8-0 in a one-sided affair. Both teams have very young players as they rebuild. Tacky’s manager Jevaughn Hinds said his team was not at full strength as at least five players had ID issues and were left out of the team. On the scorecard were : Captain Giovanni McLean, with three goals; Romario Gibbs two, Deandre Jackson 2 and Robert Cain 1. Cain is only 13 years old and is one of the four Under 16s used on the Tacky team.
