GSTS has ended the campaign of two Volta region schools in the penultimate one-eighth stage contest of the ongoing NSMQ.
The one-time winners trailed Mawuli School and Ola Girls SHS throughout the contest but used Round 4; the true or false segment to shore up.
They finished Round 5 by answering two out the four riddles correctly. Although Mawuli School also answered two correctly, the gap was too much to cause any upset.
Ola SHS, however, got knocked out again at the one-eighth stage of the competition. Their almost perfect score in the true or false statements was not enough to make up for their zero scores in Round 3 – Problem of the day.
Mawuli School scored zero as well.
GSTS picked seven points out of 10 from the Problem of the day question, which changed the trajectory of the contest.
Mawuli School will now have to battle it out through regional qualifiers for the first time in four years.
The final scores were:
GSTS 31pts,
Mawuli School, 29 pts and
Ola Girls SHS 22 pts.
