Shamil AmitMahanama cruised through to their sixth win in the Singer Division 1B inter-school rugby tournament when they outclassed Prince of Wales 34-5 at Longden Place yesterday.The match which was expected to be a close tussle in the end turned out to be a one sided affair with Mahanama having a one way ticket to victory. Mahanama having led 14-0 at the breather collected their points through three goals, two tries and a penalty as against a try by the Cambrians. The winners began their scoring as early as in the tenth minute after referee M.H.M. Faisal blew the whistle. It was prop forward Hasanga Piyasekera who made that first move which was converted by second row Mahesh Kumaranayake. Hasanga followed it up with another try seven minutes later which was again converted by Mahesh before the sides changed for lemons.The resumption saw Mahanama again having their own way first through a try by centre Sumudu Fernando with Mahesh adding the extra points. A few minutes later Mahesh booted over a penalty to give Mahanama a healthy 24-0 lead.Two more unconverted tries within a space of ten minutes from wing three quarter Chathura Shanuka and full back Mithun Shamen saw the winners increase their lead to 34-0. Then in the dying stages Cambrians wing three quarter Asanka Ratnayake gave them a consolation try and with the conversion going astray, the match ended.Mahanama with this win are now assured of their promotion to the top division whatever the outcome in their final against S. Joseph’s is going end.</blockquote>
