The Young Public School girls cricket team had a great win over South Wagga Public School in Young last Monday in the Riverina Final of the PSSA Knockout.

There was some lovely batting and communication when we were sent in to bat, ending the innings with 123 runs.

Mackenzie top scored with an unbeaten 31, and Sybil 13.

Our solid bowling and tight fielding kept South Wagga contained to a total of 47, with wickets taken by Matilda and Eliza (2 each), Mackenzie, Sybil, Pippa and Kaily, and one run out by Sybil.

YPS now goes on to the state quarter finals against the South Coast champs, Illaroo Road Public School.

Congratulations to the girls on both teams for such a great display of sportsmanship and fun.

Thank you to parents and supporters for umpiring, scoring, transport and support.
