Keebra Park Opens moved closer to the South East Queensland Arrive Alive Cup finals this week with a 16-4 win over North Brisbane school Morayfield State High at Wynum Seagulls.

With Morayfield being a quality opposition with the likes of Australian Schoolboy lock/Halfback Joel Moon in their ranks this was never going to be a game to be taken lightly and the boys had been training well and were bolsterd by the return of Junior Kiwi pairing of Matt Parata at fullback and Ben Te’o in the second row.

Keebra scored the opening points through a try to Sam Te’o and went into half time with a 10-0 lead. The second half saw Keebra add another six points to their tally and while Morayfield did manage to cross the line for a four pointer the result was never really in doubt. While this was not one of the boy’s more polished performances they did manage to secure the victory and have given both themselves and coach Greg Lenton a fair bit to work on as they approach a semi final showdown with arch rivals Wavell State High.

Wavell progressed through to the semis with a win over Redcliffe State High School in another well contested game that shows that the standard of the final eight in this competition is getter higher with every passing year.

The Keebra Park versus Wavell game is set to kick off at 5pm on Wednesday 10th of August at Pizzey Park, Miami with the second semi final between PBC and Sunnybank High school to follow at 6pm. Please watch this space for any changes.
