Glenalmond win boy`s Scottish Cup

Glenalmond College triumphed in the boy`s final with a
comfortable 4-0 victory over Loretto at Peffermill.

The contest was effectively over by the interval, Will Jack
opened for the Perthshire side in 14 minutes and there followed
further strikes by Robbie Swift and Archie Farquharson for a three
goal lead at half-time.   There was no further scoring
until the final minute when Farquharson scored his second.

The semi-finals were played a few days earlier, and both were
decided by a penalty shoot-out.  Last Saturday Fettes and
Glenalmond fought out a 2-2 draw in normal time, but the latter won
through 2-1 on the subsequent penalty
competition.    It was a similar score between
Gordonstoun and Loretto the following Tuesday, this time the
Edinburgh school won 4-3 on penalties.
