William Knib in action against Herbert Morrison

The 32 qualifiers for the second round of the ISSA/Wata DaCosta Cup football competition were decided on Monday when the remaining four slots were filled.

St Thomas Tech, Maggotty High and Munro College from Zone E as well as Cedric Titus High from Zone C all booked their spots as the second round is set to kick off on Wednesday with eight first leg games and another eight being played on Thursday.

Munro College finished third in Zone E but took the best third place spot from Pool 2 with their 1.83 points average joining Green Pond from Zone A as the two best third places. St Thomas Technical finished in the top two of their zone for the first time in six years after hammering Robert Lightbourne High 7-0 in their Zone O rescheduled game and advance along with Seaforth High.

Shamar Hamilton scored a hat trick to power St Thomas Technical to a big win after they had scored 13 goals in their previous nine games, improving to 16 points and overtook Paul Bogle High for the runner-up spot. Cedric Titus High, last season’s zone winners, benefited from William Knibb Memorial’s 3-1 win over Herbert Morrison in their rescheduled Zone C game played in Martha Brae.
