Kuranui College from Wellington have taken out the
top spot in the National Final for Showquest, the country's
largest performing arts competition for schools.
The
Kuranui team themed their piece around the Waikeria prison
riots. Anna Laybourn, a student leader on the Kuranui
College team, explained they had decided on that theme
“because it wasn’t really talked about at all. It’s
pretty important and we needed to get that message out to a
bigger audience”.

"The threes were huge for us today," said head coach Buffie Burson. "I think the main thing, though, is that we got some defensive stops after halftime. We were able to string together some stops that allowed us to get some momentum on the offensive end."
With a defensive stop at the buzzer, the No. 6 Nighthawks completed their rally to win their third conference title in four years. UNG hit 14-of-25 threes to bolster the offense in the contest.
Lander jumped out to a 14 point lead in the first half before the Nighthawks started clawing back by hitting shots from distance. By halftime, North Georgia had cut the lead to six and came out in the second half to rally to a two-point lead headed to the final 10 minutes.
