Mevan BANAGALA

Two reputed higher educational institutes APIIT and ACHE took on each other yesterday in their Annual Rugby fixture at Havelock Sports Club ground.

After 90 minutes of gruelling rugby ACHE won the match by 15 points to APIIT's feeble 5 points.

ACHE lost last year's fixture to APIIT 33-5, but they were determined to win this year's encounter when they scored two quick trys to score ten points at lemons. However with 10 minutes to the final whistle APIIT powered their way through to score a try. APIIT subsequently missed two scoring opportunities.

At the long whistle the score line was 15-5 in favour of ACHE.
