MHS rugby girls reclaim cup
The Motueka High School girls 1st IV reclaimed The Wahine Toa Cup on Wednesday at Motueka’s Sports Park, in an exciting match that saw them stage an epic comeback. Down 19-7 at half-time the Motueka girls fought hard to take the win 31-19 over Nayland College. It was the team’s eighth year in the final, and they’re stoked to have the cup back in their hands after losing it to Waimea College last year. The strong rugby team of Motueka High School girls 1st IV held the Cup for the 6 years prior to the Waimea loss. The girls are grateful to their manager Kath Saunders (far left) and coaches Culainn Stringer and Joe Wineera (back right). Photo: Judy Thorp.
