The men's squash team retained the championship Simons Shield in a series of impressive victories over the other universities.

On the Monday Victoria beat Canterbury 2-1 and later in the day defeated Auckland 3-0. On Tuesday the team won against Otago 3-0 and later repeated the performance to defeat Massey 3-0. All games were well contested by the home side and the skill of the players was well up to last year's standard.

After a series of defeats in the other sports it was refreshing to see this club retaining its championship position and the scores speak well for the experience and ability of the three-man team.

The women's team also did well, a vital link if Victoria were to retain the shield. The women's team came second to Otago.
