Crash mystery sparks fresh appeal for witnesses Paula Hulburt Editor

paula@marlboroughmedia.co.nz

Mystery surrounding a crash which left a 15-year-old girl with serious injuries has prompted a fresh police appeal for help.

The victim, who was gravely hurt after she was hit by a car, remains in hospital with serious injuries while police puzzle out what happened. Police have launched a new plea for motorists who witnessed the crash to come forward.

The girl has been in Wairau Hospital for 10 nights undergoing treatment for the injuries sustained in the crash. A spokeswoman from the hospital says the girl remains in a stable condition. The driver involved has been

spoken to by police after initially stopping and then driving off. Police say more information is needed to help them solve the sequence of events. The girl was hit by a vehicle travelling towards Blenheim on SH63, between the intersections

of Anglesea Street and Inkerman Street on 18 June. While police have spoken to the driver, they hope other motorists may be able to help with the investigation.

A gala concert featuring the 2021 All-Stars band, composed of the top musicians in the South Island, is set to be a cornerstone of the festival, Hannah says. “With numerous public performances throughout the Marlborough Region, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to enjoy some live jazz, and marvel in the immense talent that travels from far and wide each year.” The festival is scheduled for the beginning of August, with the public performance schedule to be released soon.

Covid scare sparks test spike Covid testing in Marlborough has nearly doubled in the wake of Wellington’s COVID scare. An Australian visitor to the capital tested positive for COVID-19 sparking a rise to Alert Level 2 in Wellington. And in the last week, testing for the virus has ballooned in the region with health services taking 172 swabs. There have been no positive community cases related to the visitor. The tourist visited several popular Wellington destinations, and Nelson Marlborough Health’s (NMH) advice is for anyone who has been to those destinations to get tested. Wellington’s increased alert level was extended on Sunday, with restrictions set to ease at midnight tonight [Tuesday]. The total number of confirmed cases in New Zealand since the beginning of the pandemic is 2,382. A NMH spokeswoman says they are monitoring demand for tests closely. “If the demand became too great for GPs and UCC [urgent care centre] to handle we can quickly stand up a CBAC [communitybased assessment centre],” she says. Their website advises people who may have been exposed to stay at home and get a test around five days after last exposure.

There has been a rise in COVID-19 tests across the region.

Parking prices in Blenheim and Picton are set to rise. File photo.

Hour of free parking comes at a cost Paula Hulburt Council bosses have given the go ahead for an hour’s free parking to continue in central Blenheim and Picton. The first hour of free parking has been extended for Blenheim and Picton’s central business districts. But parking prices will be increased to cover the extra cost to council. Parking portfolio holder councillor Brian Dawson says council had received a lot of positive feedback from shoppers and retailers about the policy since its introduction in October last year. “Encouraging people into the Picton and Blenheim CBDs is vital for our retail and hospitality sector. “We want to make it as easy as possible for Marlburians to get out and support our local shops, cafes and restaurants,” he says.

It is the first time in six years that parking rates have risen. “These increases are necessary in allowing the first hour of parking to remain, without passing the cost on to all ratepayers,” councillor Dawson said. “Despite the increase, our parking still remains relatively affordable compared to other similar centres throughout the country.” Hourly parking fees in other areas, such as the Alfred Street car park building will increase from $1.00 to $1.20 per hour, while all-day car parking (zone 3) in Blenheim will increase from $4.00 to $4.80 and from $5.00 to $6.00 in Picton. Those with council parking leases and permits will also incur a slight increase.

Lock it or lose it: vehicle security Overnight between Friday and Saturday, residents in the Springlands area of Blenheim had items stolen out of their vehicles. The vehicles concerned were parked off the road on private property. It appears the offenders have opened the vehicles unlocked doors to gain entry, then rummaged through the various compartments inside the vehicles, helping themselves to a ladies wallet containing cards and other items, phone charging cables and vaping products and other contents of a handbag. The vehicles were discovered with their doors left ajar on Saturday morning and their batteries flat because the interior lights remained on all night. Some of the items stolen from the handbag were later found dumped several houses down the road. The two vehicles were both parked up the same driveway. However, after seeing some activity posted on Facebook relating to this theft, residents in Kingwell Drive have also reported that they disturbed three males on their property in the small hours of Saturday

Russ Smith morning and they ran off after the residents chased after them. Left behind at their property was a scooter (the non-motorised type) that it transpired had been stolen from a property further down the same street. Police will continue to investigate these incidents and will conduct a forensic examination of the affected properties. Police encourage anyone who believes that they have been the victims of theft from their property or vehicles to contact the police. Thefts from vehicles features high in the crime statistics for Marlborough and it’s common for victims to report that their vehicle was unlocked and that

valuable items were left in the vehicle within view. Police are reminding vehicle owners to do some basic things that will dramatically reduce the chances of becoming a victim of theft from their vehicle:  Regardless of where & when you park, always lock your vehicle before leaving it.  Never leave anything of value in your unoccupied vehicle – if it is within view, it is more likely to be targeted by a thief.  Avoid parking on the street overnight if possible.  Always ring 111 and ask for Police if you see someone acting suspiciously around unattended vehicles.

Sitting in the audience, Blenheim Lions Club member Stuart Tapp smiled as he heard someone was about to receive the organisation’s top honour. He nodded as President Delphine Lees continued to talk, sure he knew which fellow member was to be recognised. So, when he heard his name being called out to rapturous applause, he was stunned. In front of a crowd of 76 people, Stuart was awarded a Lifetime Membership from the International Association of Lions Clubs. Presenting the rare award at a special dinner at the Clubs of Marlborough last week, Delphine paid tribute to Stuart’s work. “As a Life Member Stuart has given so many meaningful years to the community, to the Lions Association and who continues to make a difference,” Delphine says. “One of the most important assets of a happy successful man is the lovely lady who is by his side always and for Stuart, Elaine has been exactly that lady. “You are both very much appreciated and well thought of by all of us.” She says Stuart was “totally surprised” by the award. “He said to me that when I started the speech that he knew who I was talking about and was gob

He enjoyed his work with the association so much that on moving to Blenheim in May 1998 he transferred his membership. He started the hugely successful book fair fundraiser which has raised $24,000 and the wood fixtures on Wither Road which are stocked with firewood every day. Fellow Blenheim Lions Club member and friend Lindsay Moir says Stuart is always on hand to help. “He’s very hands on and has been involved ever since I knew him and has played lots of roles, from president to treasurer and has the passion and drive to be involved.” The Blenheim Club has about

60 members and raises money for the community. Being a member is about making new friends and giving back, Delphine says. “Our role in life is to help people and to make money to give back to people. ‘You couldn’t meet a finer lot of people. We all like to help out and yes, we have a laugh.” The Club meets twice a month and enjoys fortnightly meals together. ‘We are one of the larger clubs in Blenheim, but we are always looking for new members,” Delphine says.

Tui, Manaia and Taika Huntley are supporting charities that helped them when Manaia was diagnosed with a brain tumour. Photo: Supplied. Three Seddon siblings were cheered on by their whole school as they had their hair shaved off. Manaia, 9, his brother, Taika, 5, and sister, Tui, 8, were supported by their friends and family as they each lost their long locks to the clipper last week. The kind-hearted trio are raising funds for the charities which helped Manaia and his family when he was diagnosed with a brain tumour at just 7-years old. He underwent surgery and rounds of chemotherapy and radiation to shrink an egg-sized growth. Now fully recovered Manaia, 9, have vowed to help the charities who

supported him at his lowest ebb. Ronald McDonald House Christchurch, The Child Cancer Foundation and counselling service I Am Hope are set to benefit from the $3000 boost. Mum Laura says Manaia, Tui and Taika had wanted to raise $1000 for each of the charities. “They were hoping to raise $1000 for each charity so they are there. “They are loving their new look, mostly because it makes showers nice and quick and they have new beanies. “Tui especially loves her new look; she is spending a bit of time in front of the mirror. She looks super gorgeous.”

She says she is delighted at well received the show has been. “I am so proud of the children and what they have done, they were amazing. “I couldn’t have done this as a director on my own and I want to say a big thank you to the community for all their support. “So many people helped and made this happen, I am very grateful.”: The show is based around a girl called Penny, played by Claudia Richmond.

Council is trying to legalise camping at its freedom camping sites after realising none of them complied with either national or regional rules. Of the five freedom camping sites owned by the Marlborough District Council, two violate national reserve rules and four are waiting on resource consent approval to make camping there legal. The sites, which saw 4300 tourists over summer, were the only ones to survive an overhaul of the region’s freedom camping bylaw six months ago. Eight others were closed. The council admitted following a Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act (LGOIMA) request that the four sites without a resource consent are “technically noncompliant” under its own regional environment plan. The proposed Marlborough Environment Plan does not explicitly allow camping at the council’s Wynen St car park, Taylor River Dam, Lake Elterwater Reserve and Wairau Diversion campsites, which

I’ve always been ‘for’ freedom camping ... We’ve never had a problem from them.” — David McLuckie, Manager, Renwick Sports and Events Centre means consent is needed. A council spokesman says the compliance team are aware of this and are actively seeking resource consents. He did not state when these are expected to be lodged. Legalising the Wairau Diversion site, north-east of Blenheim, is expected to take longer than the others as the council plans to spend $900,000 landscaping it. The idea is to enhance its layout, and health and safety. Camping is only allowed at New Zealand reserves under the act if it is allowed for in a reserve management plan or if Conservation Minister Kiritapu Allan gives her consent. The Renwick Domain and Taylor River Dam sites have neither. The Government has given council the ability to

WHAT IS MISSING? • Renwick Domain – reserve authorisation • Taylor River Dam – reserve authorisation, resource consent • Wynen St car park – resource consent • Laker Elterwater Reserve – resource consent • Wairau Diversion – resource consent allow camping on its reserves, but staff want a “formal recommendation” approved by Marlborough’s councillors. Renwick Sports and Events Centre manager David McLuckie was surprised camping is not technically allowed the Renwick Domain site, next to the events centre. “I’ve always been ‘for’ freedom camping ... We’ve never had a problem from them. The local scallywags cause more problems. Lately, we’ve been getting more Kiwis or people looking to work local, who stay until they find somewhere.”

Farmland mapped for future Farmers, the council and a local technology company have recently joined forces to map and monitor thousands of hectares of farm land in Marlborough. This collaborative effort funded by the Council and Ministry for the Environment marks the first major milestone of the Catchment Care programme to protect and improve river catchments in the district. The Council designed and built new mapping software to collect real-time data on stream conditions, fencing, and low-lying areas where runoff collects, to help inform farmers’ decision-making about future management of their properties. Blenheim-based GeoInsight, which specialises in mapping and data, upskilled its staff to use the new programme while mapping properties by foot and electric bikes from February to May. The Council launched the Catchment Care programme last year to invest in and collaborate with communities of Marlborough to improve river catchments. The voluntary programme also aligns with new Central Government freshwater rules, which will require farmers to have their own freshwater farm

Under the programme, the Council provides the mapping, or catchment condition surveying, at no cost to the landowners and

provides government funding to incentivise farmers to build fences, establish dung beetle populations and plant natives alongside waterways. Funding for projects are prioritised over the five-year programme and based on multiple considerations - from water quality monitoring results to landowner readiness and goals

for the property. Environmental Scientist Matt Oliver says many farmers were going beyond the bare minimum, with fences being planned to meet both the letter of the law and to make additional commonsense improvements to further protect water quality. “The new freshwater rules have

been a real challenge for farmers, but they have stepped up and worked with us on this,” he says. “We’ve been out talking to the farming community since last year and many are keen to get involved. Now, each farmer will be able to make informed decisions about their property. The data will also help farmers with the Freshwater Farm Planning process coming in the next year.” Anyone who didn’t participate in the first round of surveying is still able to participate by contacting the Land Resources team at the Council. Catchment care officers have contacted more than 400 landowners to get permission to map their properties. More than three-quarters of the land area across seven catchment areas were mapped across Are Are Creek, Kaituna, Pelorus, Rai, Ronga and Opouri Rivers, and the Linkwater streams. While the catchments were selected based on the priorities in the Proposed Marlborough Environment Plan, each catchment area is unique with solutions driven by the community. Some communities have formed catchment groups


good to discuss water goals for their area, designating one landowner to liaise with the council on the programme. In the Pelorus Sounds area, the Te Hoiere Project is one of the largest catchment improvement efforts in the country, and the Catchment Care programme has also completed surveying for this project. The next step for this area is for catchment groups to meet with Council staff to discuss the results before one-on-one farmer meetings. At these meetings, farmers develop water quality action plans. Once action plans are developed, the Council can offer funding to support delivery of water quality mitigations through funding from Ministry for the Environment and Ministry for Primary Industries. Catchment Care programme update: • 10,924 hectares mapped across focus catchment areas • This represents 77% coverage of the land area, some areas up to 92% • 418 landowners contacted, 1,026 hours of surveying time • 812km of streams surveyed across all catchments • Remediation work under way, following the survey: •11km of fencing •16 dung beetle farm packs ordered •0.6 hectares of native planting • Catchment community groups establishing

A Groundswell of support for rural communities

Rural communities are encouraged to join in a planned protest against government rules next month. Photo: File. A new support group geared towards helping farmers get their voices heard is set to start in Marlborough – with a howl. Groundswell NZ is a volunteer group of farmers and rural professionals advocating for grass root farmers and rural communities. And on 16 July, local farmers are encouraged to join in a national protest about what the group say are unworkable government regulations. Marlborough coordinator Lone Sorensen says the group is geared to helping

and advocating for rural communities. “It all started with a tractor protest about the National Policy on freshwater. With overwhelming national support, it has grown to encompass a range of issues. “Educating, supporting and talking common sense with our rural communities throughout New Zealand. “Seeking solutions to environmental issues that are tailored to regional districts and their differences.” Lone says the group wants to end unworkable rules

on freshwater, indigenous diversity, climate change and land reform. Supporting the hundreds of grassroots initiatives like catchment and land care groups, QEII covenants and biodiversity and conservation trusts is key, she says. Lone says a Howl of Protest will take place in town centres from 12 noon. She hopes people will come along to support farmers and rural communities. “If you are a farmer, a grower or a ute owner and you are fed up with increasing

Government interference in your life and business, unworkable regulations and unjustified costs then please join in. “Bring your tractor or ute and a couple of dogs.” “If you live in town and want to show your support, you are welcome to join in too. “New Zealand is a great place to live, it is worth fighting for.” If you would be interested in attending a meeting, email Coordinator Lone Sorensen, okifarm@farmside.co.nz or text or phone 0220971892.

Magpies tackle their way to Tasman rugby crown Peter Jones Reporter

peter@marlboroughmedia.co.nz

There was both ecstasy and agony for Marlborough rugby teams involved in Tasman Trophy playoffs over the hill in Nelson on Saturday. On the positive side, the Moutere women’s team pulled off a decentsized upset, beating the favoured Waimea Old Boys side 10-6 in the Nelson division one competition final at Trafalgar Park. However, Central, the only Marlborough-based men’s side to reach the Tasman Trophy semifinals, were comprehensively shaded by Kahurangi in Motueka, going down 36-8. The Magpies women illustrated how finals footy should be played. They created a few chances, took a couple of them superbly, then defended with every ounce of their energy as the home side camped on the Moutere line for a decent chunk of the second spell. Waimea opened the scoring through a couple of penalties from Eve Findlay, leading 6-0 at the half hour mark. However, Moutere had the final say just before the break, young right winger Eleri James-Sitters slicing through in midfield to dot down under the bar. It was not long into the second half before James-Sitters was at it again, producing a scything

run out of defense to create a try for fellow Marlborough Girls’ College winger Fiaalii Solomona. Ahead by four, it was time to dig deep on defense and the entire Moutere side did just that as Waimea, led by experienced Tasman Mako player Jess FosterLawrence, threw everything at them. Hannah Gillespie, Moutere hooker and club stalwart, said her body was “a bit sore” afterwards but was thrilled with the victory, which she underlined was achieved through a total team effort. “It was pretty intense, the teams were evenly-matched so it was a grind” she said. “It was our defense that actually won the game for us … to not let them score a try for the full 80 [minutes] was massive.” Moutere lost to Waimea on the three occasions they had met this season, but Hannah said there was a different attitude on defense this time around. “Just moving up and putting pressure on them right from the get-go … moving up together and forcing them into mistakes ... making our individual tackles. “I think they thought they had the upper hand after they beat us last weekend, but we were all up for it this time around. “The girls were over the moon at the final whistle,” she said. This was the third Tasman title

The victory was especially fulfilling for some of the Magpies who have been around the scene for some time, such as Hannah, Niska Scott, Pippa Andrews and Kelly Couper. “Some of us have been going since 2016 so it feels pretty sweet after all the hard work that has gone in,” added Hannah. The emotions after the men’s semi were obviously on the opposite side of the spectrum. Central scored first on a mudcovered Memorial Park, through hooker Quentin MacDonald, but that was where the good news ended. The home side responded quickly with a converted try and, although Central booted a penalty to reclaim the lead,

three more tries to Kahurangi before the break pushed the men in black to a 24-8 lead and gave them a firm grip on the game, especially with the field cutting up and continuity becoming difficult to maintain. Kahurangi extended their lead soon after oranges to 29-8 and, although the Blues did well to deny them further points until the final minutes, the visiting team’s attempts to play catch-up rugby were doomed to failure. Kahurangi’s powerful scrum was a vital weapon on the slippery deck, earning penalties and pressurising Central’s ball. The Blues persevered with one-off running, their ball-carriers often easy targets for the well-organised and hungry Kahurangi defense. The home side also employed

a clever kicking game, mainly through first five Willie Havili, who had a big influence on the result. Central coach Dave McCormick felt his side were “a little flat” and it cost them. He said that, in hindsight, his charges may have been better to have turned down the penalty goal they kicked in the early stages when they had dominance and kept the pressure on. “We had them on the ropes at that stage but that penalty kick gave them time to recoup and after that they just punished us. I was proud of the way our guys never gave up though.” In the other semifinal, Marist booked a place in the final by beating Waimea Old Boys 38-17. In Marlborough division two action on Saturday, Awatere handed Central their first loss of the season, Waitohi beat Moutere 18-15 and MBC Old Boys accounted for Renwick 24-17. Meanwhile, the Marlborough Boys’ College First XV ensured their long trip to Timaru was not wasted with a 52-0 win over Roncalli Aoraki Combined on Saturday. The bonus point win keeps MBC in the race for a high play-off placing.

Top football teams notch wins Peter Jones

In Mayfield Motorworld division one, Call Care Trojans cemented their supremacy with a 7-1 victory over clubmates Call Care Hotspurs. Trojans must still play a catchup match against second-placed Central Buccaneers, who downed Rangers Development 4-0, but have enough of a points buffer to assure they take the honours. Thomas Lupani scored a hat-trick for Trojans, Jack Morris bagging a brace. The third division one match was won 3-2 by Central Wolves, courtesy of a Steve McCaa first half hat-trick. The second-round division two crown was won by Rangers Clubs of Marlborough, who scored a 4-2 win over clubmates Rangers Masters. Spartans, who notched a 5-2 win over Picton, finished second, while Redwood, despite losing 2-0 to Central Privateers, came third.

all going close in the first five minutes before Tiana Williams opened the scoring. Soon after, Sloan added a second before the visitors made it 2-1 with a welltaken strike against the run of play. However, Sloan’s second before the break allowed BV a handy 3-1 advantage. After an even first half hour of the second spell BV asserted their dominance in the final 15

Final points: Division one: Trojans 12, Buccaneers 7, Hotspurs 7, Wolves 6, BV Masters 5, Rangers Development 3. Division two: Rangers COM 12, Spartans 10, Redwood 9, Privateers 8, Rangers Masters 4, Picton 0. On Saturday the first round of the Knockout Cup competition will be played.

Victories to both Rangers AFC and the BV Bullets in Nelson division one matches highlighted Saturday’s Marlborough football action. Rangers maintained their top position on the men’s points table with a 1-0 win over FC Nelson Locomotive at Nelson’s Neale Park. On a field described by Rangers’ manager Wolfie Waechter as “a mudbath” the visiting side battled for rhythm and continuity against a team who sat back and threatened occasionally on the break. The match bore a similarity to Rangers’ previous encounter, also won 1-0, with numerous early chances to score going unconverted. The only goal of the game came in the 38th minute, a Harrison Pine shot from 20m skimming off the ground in front of the Locomotive keeper and flying into the net. Waechter said Rangers, who dominated in terms of possession and chances created, deserved to win, especially as they “tried to play football” in difficult conditions. With Aaron Hayes absent this week Tore Waechter dropped back to sweeper with the ever-

reliable Jordie Columbus moving up to midfield. Both Kane Elvy and Keagan Mortimer enjoyed game time while right back Ryan Palmer was player-of-the-day. Meanwhile, at A&P Park, BV Bullets bounced back to form with a 5-1 win over FC Nelson. The home side immediately stamped their mark on the match, Lauren Sloan, Freya Thompson, Tessa Hyland, and Abby Owen

minutes, Sloan completing her hat-trick with a neat header then adding a fourth to wrap up a memorable day. Coach Scott Kennovin described it as a “great effort from BV” and awarded joint player of the day to goalie Taz Gilbert and striker Sloan.

Beawai continue to show the way in the Whitehaven premier hockey competition, albeit narrowly from clubmates United. Both Beawai sides notched wins on Saturday afternoon at College Park, the competition leaders downing Marlborough Boys’ College 6-3 and United getting past Arotea Kiwi 3-0. Last week Beawai and Arotea drew 2-2 while United downed MBC 8-1. A women’s premier game was also staged, Arotea Kiwi getting the better of Beawai 1-0. Premier standings: Beawai 13, United 12, Arotea Kiwi 4, MBC 0. Beawai player Emily Wallace lines up a shot at goal during Saturday’s match against the MBC First XI. Photo: Peter Jones.

Nelson, West Coast and Buller did battle. The girls’ title was taken out by the West Coast side, who downed Nelson in the final 82-62. Marlborough won the battle for third and fourth against Buller 64-60. The boys’ section was played as a round-robin and was also taken out by the West Coast combination who went through undefeated. The Marlborough A side finished third.

Pelorus lay down premier netball marker Peter Jones Reporter

peter@marlboroughmedia.co.nz

Pelorus firmly established themselves as Marlborough premier netball favourites with a comfortable 51-40 win over defending champs Tokomaru at Stadium 2000 on Tuesday. With games being lost due to weather and Stadium unavailability, it has been difficult to establish a reliable form guide during such a disjointed opening to the 2021 season. However, having now beaten all four of their rivals for the premier crown, Pelorus have firmed in favouritism. Behind their early season success is a strong bench, meaning they could accommodate the absence of player/coach Courtney Taufa and midfielder Laura Murphy and still give 10 players game time. Tokomaru, trying some new combinations, were slow to start and trailed by five at halftime, then began to find their rhythm in the third quarter. After 35 minutes they had drawn level and began to pull away, shooter Wiri Bristowe and Gemma Hika finding their range. However, Pelorus fought back immediately, their revival inspired by their defensive trio, comprising player-ofthe-day Jordan Peipi, Portia Barcello and Jalen King. A lift in defensive intensity throughout the court frustrated the Toko attack, resulting in them being able to put up only five shots at goal in the final quarter. Meanwhile Paige Lovell and Karli Murphy continued to drop in the goals at the other end, turning what had shaped as a tight encounter into a relative stroll during the final

stanza. Katie Bradley, for Pelorus, and Dana Wilson, for Tokomaru stood out in midcourt. The evening’s second encounter, between Harlequins and Awatere, was expected to be relatively tight, given the Tussocks’ previous strong showing against the mixed Tokomaru side. However, a slow start put the Green and Gold brigade behind the eight ball from the outset, a position they were unable to recover from. Quins led by 10 after 15 minutes, 14 at halftime and 25 by three quarter time. Then they iced the cake with a 27-8 final quarter to underline their dominance. Showing the way was goal attack Kelsee Hamilton, who continues to impress with her court craft. She landed 40 of her 50 goal attempts to carry the bulk of the shooting load while Hayley Marfell chipped in with 14 goals. Then former MGC star Malia Manoa came on for the final 15 minutes and dropped in a staggering 21 goals from 24 attempts to remind local fans of her talent, while inflating the scoreline. Quins, who were missing regulars Liv Hodson and Simone Pedersen, still managed to get 10 players on court, including the experienced Kelly West. Bridget Gane pulled the strings in midcourt while Katie Cunningham and Olivia Robinson were effective in defence. Awatere fielded 11 players, but were unable to find the attacking rhythm that marked their previous outing. Nicole Witterick, Courtney Ryan and Aimee Jones were their best on a difficult night. The night’s third game, which did not count for points, ended

in a 60-40 to the Tokomaru Picton Motordrome side over Marlborough Girls’ College. The students were competitive against the mixed side for long periods but, with a serious height advantage at either end, Toko were able to score freely and quickly snapped up any rebounds when MGC were off target. Goal attack Emilio Dell-Yaxley and shooter Ricci Higgins made sure the plethora of ball that came their way resulted in points while lofty goal defence Jono Ettema was a formidable presence at the other end. Fiaalii Solomona and Mele Moli were the best of the students, who will have benefitted from a solid workout against a handy unit. Scores: Pelorus Edridge Contracting 51 (Paige Lovell 32/45, Karli Murphy 19/21) Tokomaru Crafar Crouch Picton 40 (Gemma Hika 19/25, Wiri Bristowe 21/24). Quarter scores: 15-12, 12-10, 12-13, 125. Harlequins New World 75 (Kelsee Hamilton 40/50, Malia Manoa 21/24, Hayley Marfell 14/26) Awatere Clarence River Rafting 31 (Kimberly McCabe 15/24, Aimee Jones 9/10, Emma Pilcher 5/7, Courtney Ryan 2/4). Quarter scores: 17-7, 17-13, 14-3, 27-8. Tokomaru Picton Motordrome 60 (Ricci Higgins 21/29, Emilio Dell-Yaxley 39/53) Marlborough Girls’ College NZ King Salmon 40 (Fiaalii Solomona 26/42, Liv Matthews 13/15, Mele Moli 1/1). Quarter scores (winning team first): 1111, 15-8, 17-12, 17-9. Standings after game two of round two: Pelorus 6, MGC 3, Harlequins 3, Tokomaru Crafar Crouch 0, Awatere 0.
