Naparima will face Pleasantville Secondary in Friday’s South Zone semifinals after the latter outfit won a grudge match with Moruga Secondary today.

The South Zone will have a new Intercol winner in 2019, as title holders Shiva Boys’ Hindu College withdrew from all under-20 competition this season
In the North Zone, it was a battle of the “Saints” as defending North Zone Intercol champions St Mary’s College and St Anthony’s College squared off in the first Premier Division clash of the 2018 knock out competition. And St Anthony’s were still standing at the final whistle, as an Ian Cowie item eliminated St Mary’s and ensured that the North Zone will also have a new Intercol champion.
