Vote for Kovsie alumna, Thato Mosehle, as she competes as one of the Miss SA 2020 top 15 semi-finalists.
UFS alumni are known for thriving and standing out among their peers. Twenty-five-year-old Dr Thato Mosehle is no exception, as she competes for the crown as one of this year’s top 15 contenders for the 2020 Miss South Africa title.
“I’m so grateful to be part of the top 15 semi-finalists for Miss SA 2020! Words cannot describe looking forward to the journey ahead, to grow, to learn, to help, and to inspire,” shared Thato after the announcement was made on the official Miss SA social-media channels.
Karla’s name appears on match balls in 2016 again

She was not destined to reach and win a third Varsity Netball title in 2015, but Karla Mostert still managed to end her last series on a high note.
The University of the Free State (UFS) Netball captain was named Player of the Tournament for the second consecutive year on Monday 19 October 2015.
Therefore, her name will still appear on the balls for the 2016 Varsity Netball series. Mostert, who due to her age will not be eligible to play in the series next year, was also Player of the Tournament last year, with her name appearing on the balls this year. All 31 games during 2015 were played with balls adorned with her name.
This is a consolation prize to Kovsies, as they lost unexpectedly against Pukke by 48-56 in the semi-finals played in the Callie Human Centre on the UFS Bloemfontein Campus on 12 October 2015. Pukke won the series for the first time on Monday 19 October 2015, when they thrashed Maties 50-37 in Stellenbosch.
The 25-year-old Mostert, whose nickname is Chits, has been a great stalwart for Kovsies over the years, and has had many successes with the team. She was also named as the Brutal Fruit Player of the Tournament earlier this year.
The Protea player, who was one of South Africa’s stars during the 2015 World Cup, will be playing netball for Bath in England next year, together with Lenize Potgieter.
