Mar 10, 2025 Sports

Kaieteur Sports- Petra Organisation wrapped up its Georgetown Qualifier playoffs yesterday at the Ministry of Education ground, with Tutorial High and St John’s College securing impressive victories to qualify for the 11th edition of the Milo/Massy Under-18 Schools’ Football Championship, set to kick off on March 15.

Following a series of high-scoring encounters the previous day, four teams including Saint Stanislaus College, Brickdam Secondary, Tutorial High, and St John’s College battled for promotion to the 2025 tournament. With limited spots available, Petra Organisation has conducted multiple qualifiers across selected regions, which began on March 7 and will conclude this Wednesday in Region Five.

In the first match of the day, Tutorial’s Travis Grogan delivered a standout performance against Brickdam Secondary, netting all three goals in a thrilling 3-2 victory to secure his team’s place in the championship. Brickdam was the first to strike, with Cherub Trim and Theon Manawakhar finding the net early in the third and seventh minutes, respectively. However, Brickdam’s defensive frailties proved costly.

Despite trailing 2-0, Grogan assessed his opponents well and mounted an impressive comeback. His first goal came shortly after halftime in the 42nd minute, giving Tutorial a much-needed boost. He then capitalized on defensive lapses, scoring twice in quick succession in the 68th and 70th minutes to complete a stunning hat-trick and propel his team to the main event.

In the other qualifier, St John’s College dominated Saint Stanislaus College early, thanks to a brace from Teron Fraser. Fraser’s clinical finishes in the 7th and 12th minutes gave St John’s a commanding lead, which they maintained throughout the match. Despite a strong performance the previous day, where they thrashed St Joseph High 6-2, Saints struggled to break down a resolute St John’s defense and suffered a 2-0 defeat.

With the Georgetown qualifiers now completed, Tutorial High and St John’s College join the lineup for the highly anticipated 2025 Petra-organised Milo U18 Football Tournament.

Further updates regarding the tournament will be provided in subsequent editions of this publication as they become available.
