Year 7 Girl's super 8's Cricket


On Monday December 1st and Wednesday December 3rd the Year 7 Girls Cricket team competed in two separate state finals, having won through in both Cricket, from term 1, and Super 8s in term 4. The girls progressed through all previous rounds undefeated after comfortably defeating arch rivals Avila College 111 to 80 in the Southern Metro Region Final.

The state final of the Super 8s was played on the hallowed turf of the MCG. This was a fantastic experience for all of the girls, especially Jess Ponsford whose great-grandfather has both a statue and grandstand honouring him at the ground.

Unfortunately the girls had to settle with runners-up after being defeated in the final by Clonard College 121 to 90. The leading run scorers for McKinnon in the final were Lilly Felder and Katrina Gill, whilst Paris Hooper-Duffy and Lucy Van Amrooy were the pick of the bowlers.

Congratulations to all of the girls who competed on the two days.
