EMR Senior Boys Baseball and Senior Girls Softball – Tuesday 30 April

The Senior Boy’s Baseball and Senior Girl’s Softball teams travelled to Knoxfield to represent Mount Waverley Secondary College at the Eastern Region Finals. The Boys dominated their pool, but sadly fell short in the final to an overwhelming performance by Blackburn Secondary College, coming 2nd in the Region.
The Girl’s Softball team fared better, competing brilliantly all day and will continue on to represent us at State level!

 

 

Senior Boys Soccer – Friday 3 May

The Senior Boy’s Soccer team competed fiercely at the Divisional level, in the most even competition in over a decade.  After three games involving 2 draws and only one win Mount Waverley Secondary College faced the greatest test of nerves in Soccer – a penalty shoot out, winning 6 – 5 against Vermont Secondary College.  The team will continue on to the Region Finals in July.

 

Cross Country – Tuesday 7 May

On a sensationally sunny May day, over 200 students from MWSC ventured off to Nortons Park to participate in the 2024 Division Cross Country Carnival.

Despite a few of our top runners unavailable due to injury, we were very confident that we were going to be able to push the depth of the other schools.

After a strong win at the division swimming carnival, our confidence was high.

Norton’s Park can be sometimes a treacherous track, but the sunny days leading up to this event ensured that every runner had a fast, safe and dry track to run on.
At the end of the day, MWSC once again came away victorious. Winning the Junior and the Intermediate shield, and coming second in the Seniors shield.
