Skipper Shazelle Coutinho netted a fine hat-trick as Duruelo Convent High School (Bandra) delivered a commanding 5-0 win over Yashodham High School (Goregaon) to secure a spot in the semi-finals of the MSSA girls U-16 KG Kalantri inter-school hockey tournament at the Don Bosco High School ground (Matunga) on Sunday.

Duruelo dominated right from the start and Hanin Qureshi gave her school a 1-0 lead in the fifth minute. Skipper Shazelle doubled the lead with a precise shot into the left corner as the teams entered the lemon break with the score reading 2-0. In the second half, a clinical pass by Hanin saw Aarya Jadhav tap in the third goal (19th min). Within the next 10 minutes, Shazelle, 15, who has also won laurels with the Maharashtra U-16 team, added two more goals despite sustaining a finger injury.
