UJ can't stop scoring points

The University of Johannesburg continued its impressive run in the 2010 Pirates Grand Challenge – their latest performance a 52-16 victory over the University of Witwatersrand at the weekend.

The FNB UJ students scored eight tries in this university derby, with Yssel Swanepoel grabbing a try double and that man Earl Lewis – unwanted by the Golden Lions selectors – also helping himself to another five-pointer.

Lewis (pictured, right) also kicked three conversions, with stalwart Ryno Luus adding a further two goals.

Pukke, who went down at home to UJ in the 2010 Varsity Cup, recorded a similar score over Wits last weekend – beating them 65-20.

UJ’s scorers:
Tries:
Yssel Swanepoel 2, Alfred Ries, JP Janse van Rensburg, Hennie Kilian, Gary Collins, Earl Lewis, Jannie Boshoff
Cons: Lewis 3, Ryno Luus 2, Clint van Niekerk
