Whitney scored twice in the last minute to secure a 13-12 win.

Half of the East squad is comprised of players from these two schools.

Senior School

The West are once again heavy favourites to win the senior school match.

The West have never lost this fixture and they are poised to win again considering the talent they have from Berkeley Institute and BHS.

As if that wasn't enough, they will be joined this year by a couple of talented Warwick Academy players.

The West have an embarrassment of riches and will struggle to find enough time for the shooting of Berkeley twins Jahkenya and Jahtuere Trott, BHS' Chelzea Somner and Warwick's sharp-shooter Kirstin Saltus.

With Dominique Richardson and Charda Simons also supporting the attack it could be a long day for the East squad.

West squad: Rebecca Heyliger, Charda Simons, Megan Diel, Chelzea Somner (BHS) Dominique Richardson, Lanae Woods, Jahkenya Trott, Jahtuere Trott (Berkeley Institute) Kirstin Saltus, Hayley Cann, Keunna Dill (Warwick Academy)

East squad: Melina Bean, Lyndia Bean, Akeila Richardson, Julia Outerbridge (CedarBridge Academy) Sarai Hines, Kacee Morton-Simons, Julesa Robinson, Farah Steede (Saltus Grammar School) Shi-Vaughn Lee, Amber Mapp (Somersfield Academy)
