Kingswood College secured a superb 20-19 victory – their first win since 2011 – over their cross-town rivals, St Andrew's College, at this year’s K-Day 1st XV rugby fixture.
The match took place on St Andrew's Lower Field on Saturday.
Kingswood drew first blood with a three-pointer from flyhalf, Daine Kruger, after the home side conceded a penalty at the breakdown. St Andrew's went into the break with a 7-3 lead, and extended this early in the second half.
However, Kingswood scored two late tries to take a 20-14 lead. In a nail-biting final few minutes.
St Andrew's scored after the hooter, taking the score up to 20-19, but the match-winning conversion was missed, handing Kingswood the victory.
