St George’s target humble Dunoon at Breezy Castle
Title holders St George’s College will look to record their second win of the the 2012 Inter-Secondary Schools Sports Assocation (ISSA)/Gatorade/Digicel Manning Cup season when they play away to struggling Group C team Dunoon Technical at the Breezy Castle playfield today at 3:30 pm.
After a surprising 1-1 draw with Hydel High on the opening day of the season, the ‘North Streeters’ recovered to exact a come-from-behind 5-1 hammering of Denham Town last Friday and are tipped to be way too strong for former champions Dunoon.
St George’s College, on four points, currently share top spot with both Hydel and Cumberland High.
Dunoon have conceded a total of 11 goals in two matches — at home to Clan Carthy and away to Hydel — and sit at the base of the group without a point.
In other matches in the group, Hydel travel to Portmore to face Cumberland, while Clan Carthy High (three points) host Denham Town High (one point).
In Group B action, 1982 winners Camperdown High visit winless Mona High in what is expected to be a one-sided contest.
Camperdown have three points after beating Waterford High a week ago and then suffering a 0-1 loss to many-time winners and group favourites Jamaica College on Friday.
Over in Group E, Trench Town High welcome Holy Trinity High to the Anthony Spaulding Sports Complex, while Spanish Town High entertain parish rivals Ascot High and St Catherine travel to neighbours Jonathan Grant High.
