Temasek Hall came from a goal down at half time to beat Kent Ridge Hall 2-1 and claim the Inter-Hall Games (IHG) men’s soccer championship on Feb. 9.
Both teams went into the game at the Sports and Recreation Centre determined to end their respective IHG campaigns on a high, and Kent Ridge struck the first blow in the first half with a misplaced cross that somehow evaded the Temasek goalkeeper and lobbed into the net.

Eusoff Hall reclaimed the Inter-Hall Games (IHG) men’s floorball championship on Feb. 3, as they edged a tight contest against a more experienced Temasek Hall side 3-2 at the Multi-purpose Sports Hall (MPSH).

Psychology major Jamal, who has been actively competing in amateur athletics at the national level since he was 11, said that the experience of officially representing Singapore in an international competition felt “really professional.” |
