BJSS in do-or-die

TWO title contenders will lock-horns this weekend, with the victor having a clearer path to the Division One title in the MHF-Milo-NSC Junior Hockey League.
Leaders UniKL and defending champions Bukit Jalil Sports School (BJSS) will square off on Sunday and it could mean the end of the title dream for one.
But if the match ends in a draw, the advantage will move to to Bandar Penawar Sports School Thunderbolt.
Thus both teams have a lot at stake this weekend and will have to dish out something special.
The above three teams are also in the running for a quarter-finals slot, with one more win to cement their spot.
BJSS coach S. Prakash said that this would be do-or-die weekend: “First we must beat PJCC (Petaling Jaya City Council) tomorrow (today) and I don’t think it will be an easy match as they have picked up momentum since their first three defeats.
“It will be a match where we will have to control from start to end as PJCC will also be looking for points to play in the quarter-finals,” said Prakash.
“And if we beat PJCC, then UniKL will be the big test as our title defense will be on the line.”
BPSS-Thunderbolt also has one match this weekend against BJSS Juniors but they should win the match and it would prepare them for the match against UniKL the fol lowing weekend.
In Division Two the title race is turning to a toss among Ipoh City Council, Sabah and Pahang.
All three are unbeaten, with Ipoh CC and Sabah clashing first today with ground advantage going to the Council side.
Sabah is a surprise item, and it looks like their recent outing in the Razak Cup has cemented team spirit.
