ANNANDALE Secondary created history as the inaugural winners of the GUYOIL/Tradewind Tankers Schools Football League.

The team secured the title by clobbering Queen’s College 13-2 in the final round of matches at the Ministry of Education ground yesterday.

Omari Glasgow was the chief destroyer, scoring 5 goals in the 14^th, 15^th 43^rd,51^st and 56^th while there were braces from Jemar Harrington (9^th and 68^th) and Collin Hendricks (12^th and 67^th).

There were also single strikes for Markel Matheson (42^nd), Deon Haywood (45^th), Royden Maxwell (62^nd) and Anyika Headley (64^th) while Queens College had a brace from Diarra Thomas (21^st and 26^th).

The large margin meant that Annandale are now two goals ahead on goal difference, but all their nearest competitor, Lodge Secondary, needed to do was to beat Linden’s Christianburg-Wismar Secondary School (CWSS) by a three-goal margin to end the East Coast team’s dream.

This, however, was easier said than done, especially considering that CCWS were the only undefeated team.

Instead, the Linden side, who also saw their championship hope evaporate with Annandale’s win, maintained their unbeaten record in the tournament.

They went on to thump Lodge 2-0, thanks to Felix Inniss’ 18^th minute goal and Tyrese Lewis’ 51^st minute strike.

The final point standings at the end of the day had Annandale on 30, CCWS on 29 and Lodge on 27.

Other matches for the day saw Uitvlugt registering a 4-0 win over Marian Academy, thanks to Ruben Dainty (9^th and 59^th), Anthony Benn (18^th) and Mickel Mckend (43^rd) while Vergenogen won via walk- over from Dolphin Secondary.

Following the presentation of the championship trophy, Glasgow, who led Annandale’s goal-scoring in the tournament with 15 successful strikes, expressed delight with his team’s success.

“Everyone did their part and we are very happy that our hard work has paid off. We will now be looking to the other KFC tournament where we will have an excellent opportunity to challenge the likes of the extremely talented Shiva team from Trinidad”, Glasgow told the media.

The champions will receive $300,000; the runners-up $200,000; third place$100,000; while fourth place finishers Vergenoegen pocketed $50,000 in the month-long league, which was also supported by Ansa McAl through their Icool, Smalta and Lyrix products.

Both Annandale and CCWS will now join Annai and Trinidad’s Shiva Hindu Boy’s College for the 2018 KFC Goodwill tournament which is set for later this month
