Dahin Sheli dislodge Ketasco Basic

The contest was alternated between the rounds as each school put up their best in specific rounds of the contest.

By the third round, both schools had tied the contest with the same cumulative score, leaving fans with hands clasped going into the last Round.

With nothing to separate the two teams then, this contest turned out to be the first contest of Junior Sharks that had no school leading in points total before round four.

Simply, the seasiders were taught a bitter lesson to be vigilant from start to finish in Junior Sharks contests.

Right Corner Round

Dahin Sheli set the tone for this contest to begin.

It was clear the going was tough for them with regards to social literacy.

In the end, they will thank their stars for managing thirty (30) points.

When Ketasco had their turn, one would have thought they would take advantage of Dahin Sheli's poor start.

But they failed to make any meaningful impact to end the Round with thirty-five (30) points, the same as the Tamaleans.

R Cubed Round

Ketasco Basic picked the first question of the Round and was met appropriately by Dahin Sheli with their own correct answer.

The success continued for Ketasco as they picked Dahin Sheli's bonus question correctly.

Unfortunately they stumbled on their main question to allow Dahin Sheli a lease of life.

Both schools then took turns to undo the good work, thus falling flat on their backs to end the Reading and Writing segment.

On their first Arithmetic question, Ketasco Basic did what they've done so far, which is to hit their first question right.

Aku Sika of Ketasco deserves special praise for her astuteness in Math, making important interventions for her school.

Dahin Sheli ended the round with fifteen (15 ) points while Ketasco Basic were forty (40) points better.

STEM Round

Ketasco Basic exhibited some hesitation before they buzzed for the question, and predictably their answer was incorrect.

Dahin Sheli didn't slack at all, confidently buzzing to pick option “A”, the right answer to the riddle.

Both schools once again rose and fell on their set of questions.

Dahin Sheli, however, ended the stronger team,  raking in what will turn out to be destiny changing points for them.

The tables turned in favour of Dahin Sheli to end the round with thirty (30) points while Ketasco had only five (5) points in this round.
