Wauchope High Cricketers travel to State
Championships
Three Wauchope High School cricketers, Nick Cutler, Ethan
McKenna and Darren Bourke, all travelled to Penrith as part
of
the North Coast Open Cricket team which competed at the
NSW Combined High Schools carnival, held from Monday the
11th to Thursday the 14th of February.
During the carnival, North Coast played four games against
North West, Hunter, Western and Sydney North regions. They
won three games, but lost against Hunter, which
unfortunately
cost them a spot in the Final. This meant that North Coast
finished third behind South Coast and Riverina, which was an
excellent achievement. The team were also awarded the Spirit
of Cricket award for demonstrating the best sportsmanship
and
sense of fair play during the carnival.
Individually, Nick made two scores of 52 and 43 and also took
4
wickets with his off-spin bowling. Ethan, as an opening
bowler,
took 7 wickets for the tournament, while Darren was
faultless
with the wicket-keeping gloves, taking 7 catches and 1
stumping.
Despite these excellent performances, unfortunately none of
the boys were selected in the two NSW squads chosen at the
conclusion of the carnival. However, they proved to be great
ambassadors for their school and region, and can be very
proud of their achievements.
Good Luck to Triathlon Three
After a successful 2012 at state level, WHS boxing talent
Jundamurra Layton has achieved the third highest place in
the Australian National Titles for U/13 years. Fresh from
these titles in Adelaide, Jundamurra said he was pretty
happy with his results and was looking forward to more
titles
this year. He trained hard for the national titles, working
out
at Port Gym, the local football oval and the racecourse. He
had been coached by Mick Eggins with coaching support by
Kevin, Paul, Dean his uncle and his very proud Dad.
Jundamurra receives
congratulations from WHS
Principal, Mr Bob Henry

Open Cricket team reach Final Four
The Wauchope High School Open Boys cricket team has now
qualified for a State Semi-Final with a crushing victory over
Glen
Innes High in a match played at King George Oval, Glen Innes
on
Monday.
Losing the toss and being sent in to bat, Wauchope High made
a
great start with skipper Nick Cutler and Ethan McKenna putting
on
64 for the opening stand before McKenna was dismissed for
31.
Darren Bourke, who was playing despite injury, batted
aggressively
from the beginning of his innings to compile a rapid 54 runs,
includ-
ing two big sixes. His partnership with Cutler took the score to
151.
Luke Boxhall came in to chase some quick runs and he hit a
six
and a four before a top edge brought about his dismissal for
13.
This then gave Jackson Thompson a licence to hit with only 7
overs left in the innings. He smashed 44 not out to lift the
total to
245 from the prescribed 40 overs, and his knock included one
enormous six which landed in the Woolworths back dock, a hit
of
over 80 metres. Locals said they had never seen that happen
be-
fore.
Nick Cutler batted through the innings to finish with 78 not
out,
which continued his incredible run during this competition where
he
has only been dismissed once to create an amazing average of
430.
The huge total seemed to unsettle the Glen Innes batting
line-up,
as they attempted to hit out early to keep up with the run-rate,
but
only succeeded in losing wickets at regular intervals. In the
end,
they were dismissed for 73 after 12 overs, with Ethan
McKenna
