Mackay’s emerging cricket all-rounder Jack Law has been named Player of the North Queensland Cricket Alliance Under 15 Championships.
The talented Brothers junior produced stand out performances with bat and ball to help the Mackay-Whitsunday team finish second overall at the recent representative carnival staged at Harrup Park.
All conquering North Queensland claimed the title, winning all three matches with Townsville young gun Hunter Brischetto leading the way.
Playing on his home turf, the promising Law topped the run-scoring with knocks of 52, 46 and 104 - ahead of the rising Brischetto (104 retired and 53 retired) and Mackay-Whitsunday teammate Corey Stroud (40 and 101 not out).
Under the guidance of coach Shane Dunn and manager Ian Ballantyne, the Mackay-Whitsunday X1 suffered a first up loss to North Queensland before posting victories over Central Queensland and Far North.
A highlight for Law was cracking a magnificent 104 in the final round against Far North where he faced 95 balls and smashed four sixes and twelve boundaries.
Selectors will name rep squads in coming weeks to compete at the Stage 2 State Challenge in Mackay during December.
