Central Otago Winners
Mon, 23 July 12
Wakatipu proved too good for its neighbour Arrowtown in the the Central Otago premier rugby final, played at Molyneux Park in Alexandra on Saturday.
Wakatipu prevailed 16-7 in what was a tough, physical match between rivals and "good mates".
Having acquired the White Horse Cup by beating Cromwell last month, Wakatipu can add the premier final trophy to its collection and the win has secured the side a game against Clutha Valley in the Otago Country Wide final, in Clydevale on Saturday.
Wakatipu's only try was scored by Marcus Balchin and converted by Regan Pearce, and penalties were kicked by Pearce, Tony Farley and Brad Robertson.
Player of the match went to Balchin.
Wanderers went down 22 17 to Roxburgh
