The cricket playing twins featured prominently in the North Coast side that contested the recent PSSA cricket titles in Maitland.
The pair lined up for seven games across five days.
They are now playing a waiting game to see if they've been successful in reaching the state team.
Jazlyn and Zara said they were proud to represent their school at this level of cricket.
Both girls love playing cricket at the school but also played Saturday mornings with their u14 Camden Haven side in the local competition.
"We both really want to get into the state side," the pair said.
Zara is a batter and was ranked in the top 10 for aggregate runs during the titles.
"I top scored with 48 runs but I also hit six fours in the one over which I was told is a first for any cricketer at this level of competition," she said.
We both really want to get into the state side.

"I mainly batted in the middle order and the top score came in the first game."
Not to be outdone, sister Jazyln is a bowler and returned the brilliant figures of 2 for 2 from two balls - just missing out on her hat trick.
"I bowl medium pass and rely on line and length to restrict runs and take wickets," she said.
The pair attended several trial matches throughout the year before finally being selected in the North Coast side.
Both players are keen to continue to play cricket because of the fun aspect and meeting new players.
"We want to make a career in cricket but we know we have to continue to practice and train to improve our skills," the pair said.
The North Coast side included players from as far afield as Tamworth.
The Maitland matches saw 166 female cricketers competing and that will be whittled down to just 12 players in the state team.
The two girls also played in the same competition last year.
