Pres blank Caps to reach 'Big Five' final

Kern De Freitas


Saturday, October 24th 2009
 
 
 Presentation College San Fernando held their nerve and buried their chances to edge past Carapichaima East Secondary 2-0, and into the BG T&T Secondary Schools Football League "Big Five" final.

Presentation will now meet St Augustine Secondary in Tuesday's final, after a 73rd minute goal from Travis Francis and a late Rodney Young penalty.

Terrence Ramsaroop, Presentation's goalkeeper also frustrated "Caps," who would have gone ahead a number of times but for his intervention.

Caps started the brighter side, Pres picked up their game after the first ten minutes and Caps had the best of the final minutes of the first half.

Nathan James called Presentation goalie Ramsaroop into action early, blasting a right footer that caused him to tip overbars.

The South League champions also signalled their intention early on, causing a few alarms. But twice more, Ramsaroop would come good for Pres, while at the other end, Tristan Khan twice came close.

James had the best chance to hit the net before the break in the 40th. But after stealing the ball and losing his marker, he saw his attempt saved by Ramsaroop's legs. After the break, Ramsaroop stopped Anton Gill's free-kick, before Tyler Scipio thwarted Gill yet again.

Pres had a headed goal by Tristan Khan declared offside, before Ramsaroop blocked James from point blank range, causing Christon Ralph to pound the turf in disgust.

He would probably have wanted to jackhammer the earth after Travis Francis put Pres ahead in the 74th,

Controlling the ball that arrived above his head, he turned to unleash a rocket past Aaron Alfred, Carapichaima's 'keeper.

Caps had a Renaud free kick desperately scrambled away, and also earned a couple of corners, but could not fashion a comeback. Deep in injury time, Pres earned a spot kick, and Young slotted home to cap off a hard-fought victory.

Now, they have the weekend off to rest and regroup, before facing their most difficult assignment yet; a final date with St Augustine's "Green Machine".
 
ON A TRAGIC NOTE:

Teen kills student after match

Saturday, October 24th 2009
 
 
 A student was stabbed to death near the Manny Ramjohn Stadium in Marabella yesterday, following a BGT&T Secondary Schools Football League match.

Police said around 7.45 p.m., 15-year-old Damien Duncan was stabbed several times during a fight with a student from another school.

The match was a Big Five semi-final between Presentation College (San Fernando) and Carapichaima High School, which was won by Pres 2-0.

Congrats to PRES.

RIP youth man. The senselessness hadda cease.

We were hearing different stories last night.  One story is that the the youth with two of his friends were walking out after the game...a car pull up and men jump out and tell them to pass they cell phone.  The youth man fight back and get stab up.  He two other pardners buss it with the men in chase.  When the word get out other students were calling the friends phones but for hours they were not answering.  I ent get no word of them for the day.  Another story was the whole fight scene over gyul....that one didn't hold much water though

It was real disheartening to see the youth man lying down on the ground in blood for hours because police block off the street so as to not disturb the crime scene.  This morning I pass by the scene again on mih way to the Osbourne Turton game and see that somebody lay down some flowers on the spot where the dead youth man head was resting last night.

He was the only son for the mother.

even though it may be a sad moment i just wanted to say congratulations to Presentation college. It has be what seemed like eternity since they won the South zone. After being relegated and coming back to a high standard of football.... their praise is deserved.

 The newsday suggests that the police think is students from Marabella Sec do the deed, also there may be some kind of feud between Caps and Marabella and this youth happen to be targeted because he was from Caps.
School rivalry going on long time it used to be between QRC and CIC but it was always lil fist fight here ah bottle there in the worst of times.
These youths probably look for bragging rights in the school and pips with the girls but at least one youth move from schoolboy to the worst kind of criminal in the matter of seconds.
The newsday story also have a quote from one of the Caps schoolboys as saying essentially that teenagers in TT doh expect any kind of longetivity. Sad sad.

When will it end

Schoolboy killed by gang.
Dave Persad (T&T Express).


A 15-year-old schoolboy was left to die on a street near the Manny Ramjohn Stadium in Marabella Friday night after being chased, beaten and stabbed in the chest.

Damien Duncan, a third form student of Carapichaima Secondary School was attacked by a gang of eight youths.

The person who stabbed him is reported to be another teenage student of a school in Debe.

Duncan was in his school's uniform when he was killed.

He had attended the Big 5 school InterCol final between Carapichaima and Presentation College, San Fernando.

The game was won by Presentation 2-0.

Duncan lived with his mother, Brenda Callender, 52, in Freeport. He was her only son.

She was inconsolable yesterday.

Duncan's father, Emry Duncan, lived in Point Fortin.

He told the Sunday Express he was unsure what sparked the attack but that his son was a "cool guy".

The father said the killing of his son shows that Government cared less about crime than about the millions.

"It reach a football game now," he said.

A woman who witnessed the killing said she saw Duncan running along the road with his clothing covered in blood.

A group of eight young people, the witness said chased after the boy, and one struck him on the head with a glass bottle.

Homicide officers had in custody several schoolboys last night.
The real measure of a man's character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out.

This seems to be the latest version going around...and might have some truth in it too.  Apparently things didn't go down too nice in the Central Zone between Caps and Marabella, so Caps men were targeted for this game.  Witnesses also say that they saw someone in a Debe High uniform in the act as well.


ah saying dis for yrs now....school football needs serious policeing...secriuity

too much passion going down

Well because of this they moving the finals from the Mannie to somewhere in the East....most likely Larry Gomes Stadium.

I remember last year the ref call off a game between Siparia and Pres down in Siparia.  Real men get vex because the whole of Siparia come out to watch football and the two teams end up training on the two halves of the field...in their uniforms.  Those who know the Siparia ground will know that you cyah collect money cause is a big open ground so everybody invited.  Men argue that the Police Station right next to the ground so the ref coulda play the game....but boy looking at it now..yuh coulda never tell oui.  All it takes is a couple seconds to committ the act and the police will always arrive after the fact.

It is not the police who really is at fault here. The SSFL should be making arrangements for the security at these events. The days of "well behaved" crowds are long gone.
