The Spike: or, Victoria College Review, June 1912

Second Eleven

Second Eleven.

The team failed to play up to expectations, and won only one out of its eight matches, six being lost and the last unfinished. However, the material of which the team was composed was so promising as to give hopes of a much better season next year. But to bring this about a greater sense of loyalty and just a little attention to the neglected art of fielding will be necessary. Following is a summary of the matches played:—

v. Wellington College: Victoria College 117 and 110 (Miller 51, Duncan 28, Atmore 25). Wellington College, 184 and 44 for o wickets (Martin 6 for 49). Lost by 10 wickets.
