Cayman Prep Under 11s top Group B
This past Saturday, Cayman Prep’s Under 11 team rounded off a perfect season by defeating Red Bay Primary 3-1 in a “top of the table” Group B clash at the Annex Field.
Both schools started the day boasting a perfect record with five wins out of five with Cayman Prep holding the edge thanks to a superior goal difference.
With qualification assured for both schools in the Under 11 Champions Cup Playoffs in January 2013, a very valuable three points were on the line.
During the season, Cayman Prep scored an impressive 44 goals so it wasn’t much of a surprise when the Prepsters took the lead in the 16th minute after Aaron Jarvis got on the end of teammate David Pitcairn’s perfect cross. The impressive young Pitcairn added to his team’s lead in the 35th minute before Red Bay’s Jossiah McLaughlin scored an unfortunate own goal in the 42nd minute to make the score 3-0.
Red Bay’s Mesyass Llewellyn gave his team a glimmer of hope in the 43rd minute after tapping in a loose ball but it was too late as Cayman Prep held on for the win and the Under 11 Group B championship.
In the Under 9 fixture, Cayman Prep and Red Bay played out an exciting 1-1 draw with Red Bay’s Noel Squire opening the scoring in the 9th minute and Jack Norman equalising for Cayman Prep in the 41st minute.
Other results from Group B were NorthEast Schools 3 vs. Prospect Primary 2 (Under 9); NorthEast Schools 6 vs. Prospect Primary 1 (Under 11) and Triple C 2 vs. South Sound Schools 4 (Under 9).
In Group A it was Sir John A. Cumber Primary 1 vs. St. Ignatius Prep 2 (Under 9); Sir John A. Cumber Primary 0 vs. St. Ignatius Prep 0 (Under 11); George Town Primary 2 vs. Truth For Youth 2 (Under 9); George Town Primary 4 vs. Truth For Youth 1 (Under 11) and Grace Academy 2 vs. Cayman International School (Under 11).
