BRAVE BATTLE: Despite giving a spirited performance, The Welwitschias lost 50-39 to the visiting South Africa Students team at the Hage Geingob Stadium on Saturday. The match was expected to go a long way to helping the national team prepare for their second divisional 2015 World Cup qualifiers, which are set to continue in June this year. In Saturday's match the Students raced onto an early lead which they kept until the end, despite pressure from the Welwitschias during the latter stages of the clash. The Namibian captain and Number 8 PJ van Lill (carrying the ball in the picture) had a great game, as he scored two late tries from close range. Meanwhile, in the curtain raiser the Namibian Under-20 team beat a Namibian Presidents XV 36-13.
