It was a game the Wallace High School team controlled from start to finish with the Bangor Grammar School team only rarely showing glimpses of the good form that took them to the Quarter-Final stage of the Schools’ Cup. The Wallace team controlled all aspects of the game in the first half with the Wallace High School pack dominant at the set pieces as well as the breakdown. Matthew Ballentyne, Zack McCall and Cal McIlwaine all impressed with their strong ball carrying ability which caused problems for the Bangor Grammar School defence. Quality possession laid the foundation for three first half tries from Nathan McClatchey, who touched down twice, and Zack McCall. James McCallan chipped in with three successful conversions to see his Wallace High School team into a 21-0 halftime lead. The Bangor Grammar School team responded positively in the early stages of the second half but received little reward for their endeavours. The Wallace team sealed the game with further tries from Jordan Heatley and Jordan Grattan. Both tries were converted by James McCallan to ensure a 35-0 lead for the Wallace High School team. Late in the game the Bangor Grammar School team scored a consolation try through Jonny Gordan. The try was converted by Daniel Kennedy but the 35-7 victory went to the impressive Wallace High School team and, along with it, a place in the Quarter-Final draw for the Northern Bank Ulster Schools’ Cup.
