Rostrevor College has won it’s third All Schools Cup final in the past five years after knocking off public schools champions Roma Mitchell College in emphatic fashion.
The raw pace and slick footwork of wingers Vincenzo Scalzi and Henry Knight did all the damage as Rostrevor stormed home to a 6-1 win in Wednesday’s final.
WATCH MORE REPLAYS FROM A BIG WEEK OF SCHOOL SPORT SA SOCCER FINALS BELOW
Roma Mitchell just couldn’t find the answers in the face of a Rostrevor side that clearly had spent years together on the field.
Antonio Siciliano played the perfect link man through the midfield while his main strike weapons caused havoc up front.
Scalzi finished with a double, and threatened to convert his hattrick on multiple occasions in the second half, while Year 12 student Luke Spagnoletti celebrated his final time in a Rostrevor jersey in fine fashion with the last goal of the game.
Knight, Siciliano and Tommy Manstrantuone were the other goal scorers for Rostrevor.
Confidence would have been sky high for the Roma Mitchell side after they hit the scoreboard first through an own goal early in the first half, but it was all a red and black wave from that point on.
Thomas Moore College made no mistake on their way to the Year 11-12 Div 2 boys title, with forward Junior Ayang starring in a 9-0 demolition of Tatachilla in the final.
Check out the LIVE STREAM schedule below.
