Defending Suva Zone 2 boys division champion, Marist Brothers High School have some of the big names in athletics to boost their chances again next month in the Zone meet.

Marist beat Suva Grammar in the Zone meet last year but the table turned around on them in the Coca Cola Games where they had to settle for the second spot.

In trying to maintain their rhythm from the inter-house to the Zone and the Coke Games, athletes like former Dudley High School Intermediate boys high jump gold and Pacific games silver medalist, Sikeli Waqa, Pacific Games 200 meters bronze medalist Sikeli Rokowaqa, former Suva Muslim College middle distance ace Zubair Dean and former Suva primary school champ Simon Lilicama are at Marist this year.

They will join season campaigners like Banuve Tabakaucoro and Roy Ravana and Ratu Tira Narara.

Reigning Coca Cola games 400meters champion and record holder Ratu Tira said they will try their best to do better than their past performances.
