The Spike: or, Victoria University College Review, June 1921

Junior B

Junior B.

The Junior B has not so far achieved any remarkable success, but has managed to make a fair showing on several occasions against more experienced players. The middle of the season should see improved combination in the team and then the Junior B's should be well up to the general standard of Junior Grade. The results to date are as follows:—

Versus Y.M.C.A.. drawn (1 all). This was a strenuous game in which V.U.C. managed to keep the opposing team almost continually on the defensive.

Versus Wesley Rovers. Lost 6—2. Played at Petone. The team was without two of its regular players, but showed improved form on the previous Saturday, and, towards the end of the game, had the situation fairly well in hand.

Versus Karori. Lost. 1—0. In this game the team was up against much more experienced players, but made a good showing and displayed better combination.

Versus Wellington. Drawn 2 all. This was the most hard-fought match to date, and the result was gratifying in that Y.U.C. held their own against an older team.
