Shanidine Bezuidenhout, wing-attack of Maties, goes aerial as she secures possession ahead of Reratilwe Ke-Morena Letsoalo of UFS Kovsies in the sides’ fourth-round Varsity Netball encounter at the Madibaz Sports Centre in Gqeberha on Monday (9 September). The students from Stellenbosch suffered a 45-56 loss against the team from Bloemfontein, but were able to secure a 68-42 victory over Wits in a physical third-round encounter the previous day (Sunday 8 September). The dynamic Bezuidenhout was her team’s star performer in the outing against Wits, winning the player of the match award. Fifth-placed Maties will look to return to winning ways next week, when they face second-place UP-Tuks in the fifth round in Pretoria on Monday 16 September. Photo: Richard Huggard/Varsity Sports
