Mayaro Composite got back into winners’ row with a 2-1 defeat of St Benedict’s College at the Manny Ramjohn Stadium in Marabella as South Zone action in the British Gas Secondary Schools Football League continued yesterday.

The Mayaro team’s captain, Carlon Hughes, opened the scoring one minute before the end of the first half.
Hughes dodged two defenders at the top of the 18-yard-box before firing his shot beyond the reach of goalkeeper Kareem Gray.
Rion Noel increased the lead for the “Beach Boys” in the 56th minute to put the team on course for a second win this season.
The St Benedict’s boys, with two drawn results so far this season, tried hard in an effort to reduce the deficit. And their hard work paid off when their captain, Robert O’Brien, scored from a corner kick in the 65th minute.
Despite some late pressure from St Benedict’s, Mayaro managed to hold on to the slim lead, climbing to the second rung in the standings after three rounds of play, with six points — one less than Moruga.
Moruga Composite won for the second time in three matches, 1-0 over Vessigny via a 23rd minute goal from midfielder Solomon Brereton.
