Tuks edge out Varsity Cup 'derby'

By Online Editors
Monday 25 May 2009

FNB Tuks held out for a narrow, but important 14-7 Carlton League - and Varsity Cup 'derby' - win over TUT on Saturday.

Tuks, the top side on the Carlton League log, have lost just once this season - but they were made to work for this victory against their fellow Varsity Cup opponents.

Both sides scored a try each, but the boot of flyhalf Louis Boshoff (one drop-goal) and outside centre Gerrit Smit (two penalties) helped Tuks to the win, which has now - surely - ensured them qualification for the 2009 National Club Championships.

Boshoff also scored Tuks' only try and would no doubt have been the toast of his team after their hard-fought victory.

Tuks' scorers:
Try: Louis Boshoff
Pens: Gerrit Smit 2
DG: Louis Boshoff
