JTCC SPORT UPDATE -  Term 4, Week 8&9

John Therry has successfully wrapped up another year of MISA competitions by claiming two MISA Premierships from our 9 MISA teams. All staff and students are to be congratulated on their efforts this term. You have represented JT so well and making four finals is a reflection of the effort of the school. More information below in the team reports.

JT placed 3rd in both Junior and Senior Girls competitions for 2022, while the Junior and Senior Boys both placed 1st. Overall we were neck and neck with Mt Carmel but were narrowly defeated in the end. Again, another massive effort throughout the year and all students should be proud of their individual and team achievements.

Students in Year 7 have successfully completed an introduction to a Water Awareness Swimming program. All students had the opportunity to complete 2 swimming sessions this term demonstrating and improving their pool awareness and swimming skills. All students are to be congratulated on their efforts and for be brave in what can be a daunting life experience.

GRAND FINAL

A disappointing finish to what was a relatively successful season. We made it to the grand final and felt the confidence after last weeks performance but unfortunately, we were well and truly out played. Whilst we didn’t win, you should all be proud of your efforts boys. We formed a team that had never played before and got a lot of experience out of the season.  We will be back next year ready to take that trophy back to JT.

3rd PLACE SEMI FINAL

The score is not a representation of the style of play that the ladies brought to the field today. There was a great mixture of passing and tagging that showed the growth from multiple players. Jorja Borg had to adopt a new role and she showed great leadership to involve inexperienced players. Jorja Borg was excellent in attack and defense and has deservedly earned the MVP with a strong running Mia Leech

GRAND FINAL

The boys rocked up for the grand final after they were defeated by their opponent in the last round. Although eager to improve and compete, we started off slowly, with MAS scoring back to back goals almost immediately. We managed to settle into the game but were still behind by 3 points at the break. 

After some minor tweaks at half-time, we managed to get back on top and out to an 8 point lead. Unfortunately, MAS wrestled back their ascendency, kicking two late goals to win the game.

It was a great, competitive game played by both sides and although we didn't manage to get the win our boys should be proud of their efforts.

MVP: Sullivan O'Dwyer

3rd PLACE SEMI FINAL

A sensational way to finish the season with our JT girls taking the win against Magdelene 48-17. Our strong midfielders were able to move the ball from the ruck straight to our forwards with some fast scoring in the first 10 minutes. A sensational effort from both Alexis Paulo and Isabella-Grace Marshall taking key marks and lead point scorers this game. Congratulations also goes out to Amelia Smith scoring her first point and also Hannah Epple who scored her first goal for our team. These girls have worked hard all season at training to improve their skills and it paid off today with a great win. Well done girls, you should all be very proud of yourselves.

MVP: Isabella-Grace Marshall

MISA PREMIERS

Another cruisy victory for JT against MAS spelled an undefeated season in the 10-11 Mixed Frisbee competition. Some sloppy play mixed with mild eastern winds meant that finding the endzone was tough, however JT stepped up as usual and overcame the conditions. Excellent defence from Angus, Ella and Max ensured only 9 points scored against us. Crafty work in the middle from Emi, Mason and Riley allowed easy points for Grace, Tess and Bridget, racking up the scoresheet 25-9. Really proud of the team’s efforts this past term. Shoutout to Coach Liberty.

MVP: Mason McPhee

MISA PREMIERS

Congratulations to the Senior Boys Volleyball team on their outstanding win in the MISA First Division. A change of venue to ensure we played on a full size court meant we had the opportunity to perform at school - where we have never lost. The tricky wind conditions and presence of the sun made the match difficult for both teams. We adjusted better after some poor first up serves, to go on and dominate the net. All the boys should be justifiably proud of their contribution to the team. We have relied on all players at different times to scrape into third place and then perform when we had to for the semis and the final.

MVP: Kisione Tupola

v MCCC

 

 

 

A disappointing result for the girls today in the final losing 2-0 to Mt Carmel. They played well however they were beaten by a better team on the day. The girls took a while to warm up in the first set and that's when valuable points were lost, especially at the net. The second set was well contested with JT only going down 25-23. An impartial and objective referee could have improved our chances of a win.

MVP - Maddy Skinner

3RD PLACE SEMI FINAL

In the third place play off JT won the toss and elected to bowl first. We failed to take advantage of our chances in the field and MAS batted steadily accumulating 76 runs. The JT batting innings started off poorly with the opening pair getting zero. However, some steady batting in the middle left 38 needed off the last three overs. Nicholas Augustine managed the game perfectly. In a “Michael Bevanesque” performance, he hit a 6 off the third last ball,  and then hit the winning runs in the last ball of the match. 

MVP: Nicholas Augustine

v OPAC






5TH PLACE SEMI FINAL

The girls played an excellent game today. They smashed 4 home in their first innings and narrowly missed a 5th home, Darcie Bennett, third out by a literal foot.

Some Excellent fielding by Kyra Crews on second and between Indy Penney, Alice Stephenson as catcher, and Sophie Regan on First made quick work of Oran Park. keeping them to 3 runs in 2 innings. The girls have grown in confidence and have gotten better each week, only narrowly losing to the other teams most weeks. I am super proud of the girls and the way they have embraced softball, some of them being the first time they have ever played.

MVP: Georgia Dowse
