After starting with a 30 point lead going into the days events, Southampton were expecting an easy victory. Portsmouth shocked everyone, including themselves, by gaining a 30 point lead themselves. However, Team Southampton would prove too strong and be able to reclaim the lead and hold on for their 8th Varsity victory in 9 years.
