The Spike or Victoria College Review 1937

Second Eleven:

Second Eleven:

The team had a most successful season and climbed seven places from bottom to fifth in its grade. Even so, its position should have been higher, as bad fielding lapses in several games cost the team at least a couple of places on the ladder. In batting, the team was mainly served early in the season by Lunn who later earned well-deserved promotion to the Seniors, and after Christmas by Johnston, who scored well consistently. The chief strength of the team lay in the excellent bowling of Knowsley who captured over 50 wickets during the season, and in one innings performed a noteworthy feat in capturing all ten wickets. He was assisted by Stephenson, who captured over 30 wickets, Dean, Edgley, Fortune, Martin and Ongley. The team had a most enjoyable season and hopes that the coming season will be even a better one.
