Whitgift School's record breaking Under-14 side completed a remarkable season by winning the Surrey Cup last Tuesday, July 3.
The side will now go on to compete in the national cup competition next year, after they beat Charterhouse at Send Cricket Club.
Whitgift bowled them all out for 115 runs, and knocked off the runs for the loss of five wickets.
The under 14 side finished the season with a record breaking 3,400 runs from their 14 matches with 3 batsmen scoring two centuries each.
Captain Matt Spriegel scored over 600 runs with two hundreds, Adam Healy over 500 runs with two hundreds, and Nick Grant over 600 runs with two hundreds. All three also play for Surrey CCC.
Tuesday was a double for the school as the under 12 side playing at the same ground beat Howard of Effingham to also become county champions and represent Surrey in the national finals next year.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
