WE EARNED OUR STRIPES.
August has been a grand month for UCT sport. Actually, it's been a month of the tiger-blooded warriors slaying the maroon nemisis.
The Hockey Boys kicked off the winning on Sat 30 July (ok, fine not August but almost...). They played an away fixture in Matieland and beat the hosts 1-3!
Then we took our stripes to the Greenmile as the Ikey Tigers played host to Maties Rugby. Having beaten them at Stellies Intervarsity in May (a feat not achieved since 2004) it was a record double victory for UCT as the staked their right to a potential league title with their 22-15 win. The last time UCT won the Super A League was in 1974!
Last Wednesday (17th August) it was soccer's turn to impress. The Ladies team did that and then some!! Playing on a chilly evening on the Kopano Astro, UCT nailed home a 7-1 victory over the Maroon Meisies. The Mens 1st XI took to the field after and fought out for a 1-1 draw.
So there, not only are we academically awesome Stellenbosch, but it seems you can't beat us on the sports field right now either.
A U! A U! A U-C-T!!!
