NSW I has claimed the Australian Schools Championship final with a 29-19 win over NSW II.
The top NSW team were the only undefeated side through the competition and they ultimately claimed a comfortable victory at St Ignatius' College in Sydney's north.
NSW I sprinted out to a 22-0 lead before a yellow card for a lifting tackle put them down a man and halted some of their momentum.
NSW II lost a man just before half-time, keeping NSW I in control at the break.
The second side hit back after the break, narrowing the gap to just eight points midway through the second half, before NSW I scored a sealing try.
QLD I has finished third after a win over ACT in their matchup, led by a strong effort from no. 10 Carter Gordon and a gritty defence.
Combined States edged out Victoria in their fifth-place playoff and QLD II avoided eighth spot with a big win over WA in the finals opener.

ACT vs QLD I
QLD I has bounced back from a heartbreaking loss to NSW I to edge out ACT 21-0 on the final day of competition.
The Queenslanders kept a clean sheet in the clash but were forced to defend for long periods in the second half, especially, as centre Reesjan Pasitoa kept them ahead on penalties.
It was a score that didn't reflect the tightness of the contest, with both sides putting their bodies on the line.
