Queen Victoria School winger Paul Buisena has secured the U14 title for his school after a last minute try in the corner sent Suva Grammar School packing 17-15.

QVS took an early lead scoring just 2 minutes into the first half and then a converted try just before the break to lead 12-0 at half-time.

Grammar fought back bravely in the second half as inside centre Josua Patrick spotted a gap and chipped the ball behind the defence.

Patrick regathered before handing it off to hooker Niumaia Vakalevei to crash over on the corner to bring the scores to 12-5.

Grammar quickly rallied from a set piece to send fullback Charlie Ligabalavu over, kick converted to draw the scores level at 12-12.

Flyhalf Taubale Qalo put Grammar into the lead 15-12 for the first time in the game after successfully converting a penalty.

QVS wrestled the lead away with winger Paul Buisena scoring in the corner to make it 17-15 and winning them the game.

U15 final between MGM High and Grammar is underway.

Ratu Kadavulevu School will take on Nasinu Secondary School in the U18 final at 5.30pm.

Gospel will meet Grammar at 11.50, Lelean will meet RKS in the U17 final at 1.10, Tailevu North College will play Nasinu Secondary in the U19 at 2.50pm.
