Branford, Sargeant, Munroe in goal-scoring frenzy

GCC striker Kevin Spencer fends off the challenge from Hilton Chester of Saints 

The opening weekend of the Guyana Hockey Board’s (GHB) first-division league was nothing short of a goal scoring frenzy which saw the likes of Aroydy Branford and Meshach Sargeant recoding top-class performances when action got underway at the St  Stanislaus Ground, Saturday and Sunday. 

Most of the battles were one-sided affairs. Pepsi Hikers got things rolling on Saturday when they defeated Supernova 8-1. 

Branford was in his usual destructive mode as he scored six of the eight goals while Andrew Stewart and Jamarj Assanah scored the other two goals.
