The Marist Brothers High School Under-18 side will be out to maintain their winning streak over Suva Grammar School when they clash in the Southern Zone Secondary Schools Rugby Union final tomorrow.

The two teams met earlier in the round-robin stages in a fiercely contested match, with Marist claiming a 25-16 win.

Marist captain Anthony McGowan says they are not underestimating Grammar, who are always strong contenders.

He says training has been tough, but they know they need to dig deep to come out on top.

He adds the support from the fans and Old Boys is something they will draw strength from.

Marist Brothers will take on Suva Grammar at 2.40pm at Buckhurst Ground 1.

In other finals tomorrow, Dudley High School will face Suva Grammar in the U14 grade at 8.30am, MGH High School will meet Suva Grammar in the U15 grade at 9.35am, Ratu Simione Matanitobua College will take on Nasinu Secondary in the U19 grade at 10.50am, Suva Grammar will meet Marist Brothers in the U16 grade at 12.10pm, and Suva Grammar will take on Marist Brothers in the U17 grade at 2.35pm.
