20140309

Blair Wynne scored two sec­ond half goals as de­fend­ing cham­pi­ons Notre Dame came from a two-goal deficit to earn a 3-3 draw with ri­vals Shandy Carib Mag­no­lias when the T&T Hock­ey Board Women's Cham­pi­onship Di­vi­sion re­sumed at the Na­tion­al Hock­ey Cen­tre, Tacarigua, on Sat­ur­day af­ter the Car­ni­val break.

Win­ners of their two pre­vi­ous match­es, 4-3 over Courts Malvern and 4-1 against Ven­tures, the Dames were con­fi­dent of se­cur­ing a third straight win.

How­ev­er, Mag­no­lias took a 12th minute lead through na­tion­al teenaged for­ward Bri­an­na Govia and ten min­utes lat­er, her for­mer na­tion­al team-mate, Mi­ka El­la Tang made it 2-0.

In the 29th minute Jea­nine Drakes scored for Notre Dame to re­duce the mar­gin to 2-1 at the break.

Ten min­utes af­ter the re-start Mag­no­lias re­gained its two-goal cush­ion with an­oth­er na­tion­al teenaged play­er, Elise Olton on tar­get.

But Wynne was hav­ing none of its and re­spond­ed with two quick goals for the Dames, first a penal­ty-cor­ner con­ver­sion in the 48th minute and then with­in the blink of an eye with a field to lev­el the match at 3-3.

In the end, both clubs had to set­tle for a share of the points. This left the Dames on top with sev­en points af­ter three match­es, one ahead of Paragon which has played two match­es.

Shawn Lee Quay net­ted a hat-trick to lead Queen's Park to a com­fort­able 4-1 whip­ping of the pre­vi­ous­ly un­beat­en Notre Dame in their top-of-the-ta­ble Men's Cham­pi­onship Di­vi­sion clash.

Lee Quay got the open­er in the eighth minute as the Parkites looked set to add to its vic­to­ries against Fa­ti­ma (1-0) and Malvern (3-0). He added a sec­ond in the 32nd minute which his team took in­to the in­ter­val.

Three min­utes af­ter the re­sump­tion, Shaquille Daniel pulled a goal back for the Dames who were al­so seek­ing a third straight win, af­ter beat­ing Malvern (5-0) and Fa­ti­ma (3-1) in their pre­vi­ous en­coun­ters.

But that was as close as Daniel and his team-mates would get as Lee Quay then com­plet­ed his hat-trick in the 53rd for a 3-1 ad­van­tage while Jar­ry­on Paul got a fourth item, a minute from full-time.

The gloss on the Parkites win was slight­ly re­moved as na­tion­al mid­field­er Ste­fan Mout­tet was shown a red card in the 65th minute, a minute af­ter his first cau­tion for dis­sent to leave his team to fin­ish the match with ten men.
