College Sport

Around the Grounds

Our College Athletics Carnival occurred on Friday and was not only a celebration of physical prowess but also a testament to the strength and unity of our college community. From the dedicated athletes who pushed their limits to achieve personal bests, to the enthusiastic supporters who cheered them on with boundless enthusiasm, every individual played an integral role in creating an unforgettable experience showcasing the very best of our house spirit at Mount Carmel. First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude to our exceptional staff members who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure the smooth running of the carnival. From the meticulous planning and coordination to the logistical arrangements, their dedication and attention to detail were instrumental in making this event a resounding success. A report and results will be published alongside our house champions in next week's newsletter.

Away from the college carnival we had the resumption of our recreational sports activities and MISA sports. Mount Carmel has a bunch of mixed results although a special mention goes to our inaugural  MISA Girls Rugby League team who won their very first game. This is a huge step forward in the progression of the game in young females.

MISA Term 2 - Round 2
Congratulations to all our MVP’s from our MISA teams this week.

Short Report

Softball

10-12 Boys

Mr Withnall 

10 - 1 Loss

VS BAC

Cooper Harrison

Another tough week of competition with some serious heavy hitters on the Broughton team. The boys have definitely improved on the choices made when both fielding and batting, however, our lack of confidence in split second decisions has tended towards some easy mistakes. In spite of this, with each game we continue to get a stronger grasp of the fundamentals and put in some excellent effort, representing MCCC well.

Basketball

7-9 Boys

Mr Rodoreda

34-30 Loss VS JTCC

Lee Ombina

The boys continued to improve as a team, with strong passing and movement up the court, and an improvement in our shooting. They played hard all game, against a team that was physically much bigger, and I continue to be impressed with the positive support this team displays on the court and from the sideline. We have some work to do on our defence, to counter those larger teams, but it is pleasing to see the team improve week to week. Keep up the hard work boys!

Netball

VS THAC

Hailee Meurant 

A tough game against the ladies from St Pat’s, our skill and consistency held them accountable but unfortunately we were unable to walk away with the win. Player of the match goes to Hailee who was recognised as a talent from the opposing coach. Looking forward to a rematch at Dio in a few weeks!

Hockey

7-9 Boys

Mr Rees

5-0 Loss

VS BAC

Marcus Furnari

A couple of good plays strung together got us down the other end with some good chances to convert, however we were outplayed by Broughton boasting a few genuine hockey players.

Rugby League

10-12 Boys

Mr Kawa &

Mr Harpley

18-12 Win

VS Mag

Adam Prasad

A great match up this turned out to be! The boys started strong in the first half with three converted tries to nil. The score at half time, 18-0. The second half was all Magdalene. With a short dropout working out for our opposition, we were set to have a defensive half with the next 9 minutes being played in our half. The boys managed to come away with the win after Magdalene had one last chance to tie the game after the siren coming up millimetres short of our try line. A good lesson to all the boys to carry through the first half form throughout the entire match. On to next week. 

Rugby League

U16 Girls

Mrs Abra & Miss Heath

28-20 Win

VS MAG

Monte Sauvao

A great win by the girls this week against Magdalene. The girls are improving every week with their tackling, passing and communication. MVP this week goes to Monte who showed no fear running up the ball and finding gaps in the Magdalene defence. Congratulations girls! Let's keep the momentum going for our next game against St Pats where we can narrow the score from our last encounter!

Frisbee

7-9 Mixed

Mr Martin

22-12 Win

VS JTCC

Katerina Krsteski

The team improved this week on developing possession into point scoring opportunities and coordinating defence. Katerina played her position perfectly, finding space behind the opposition defence. Other notable performances included Hudson Warren who, in his first game, inspired the team with his athleticism, Jeremiah Leota-Brown with his insightful vision, and Smriti Pathania showing physicality in defence. The team will look to improve on our focus for the full 40 minutes. 

Soccer

11-12 Boys

Mr Berkeley

2-1 Loss

VS SBCC

Brayden Greer

The team performed admirably despite apprehensions of overcoming difficult opponents. Some excellent performances by Max and Abdul moving the ball throughout the pitch. The team was unlucky to not come out with a win. Some great movement in the middle of the park by Sam and Dylan. Brayden Greer made a standout save with one glove in the first half spurring the team on to extra energy in the second half where he contributed excellently in defence  Well done!

Soccer

10-12 Girls

Miss Nimac

1-1 Draw 

VS MAS

Alexis Brunt

The team worked well against solid opponents. They were shaky in the first half however, came together for a strong second half. Their goalie and MVP Alexis Brunt saved several excellent shots to hold off the attack however, with the team under pressure and a classy effort the opposition moved ahead. The students remained calm and pulled together to see a solid through ball to Jessica Forde who put away an excellent goal to equalise. The girls are to be commended on their sportsmanship and effort to draw the match 1-1. Great work girls!
