Loloma Heights U21 deliver a commanding performance to secure their place in the U21 50th Fiji Bitter Marist 7s final, overcoming Namara Brothers U21 in an exciting second U21 semi-final clash at the HFC Bank stadium today.

The Savusavu-based side wasted no time asserting their dominance, crossing the line early to score a opening try.

Riding that momentum, Loloma Heights struck again almost immediately, extending their lead to 12-0 within the first five minutes of play.

Their attacking intensity proved too much for Namara to handle, as they broke through the defense once more to push the score further to 17-0.

Namara Brothers showed resilience and fought their way back into the contest with a well-worked converted try, narrowing the gap to 17-7 and briefly shifting the momentum.

However, Loloma Heights U21 remained composed and tightened their defense, shutting down further threats from Namara Brothers.

The Savusavu based team sealed the victory with another try, extending their lead to 22-7 by full time.

Loloma Heights will face Devo Young Babas in the 50th Fiji Bitter Marist U21 final this afternoon
