ALL DARK BLUE FOR WINCHESTER

Winchester’s South Hockey League Premier Division 2 promotion hopes took a knock when table topping Oxford University beat them 4-1 at Kings’.
The Dark Blues were one up inside 90 seconds – a strike Harry Talks cancelled out before half-time.   But Oxford scored three times in the second half, twice in the closing stages, to run out comfortable winners.
A 6-4 victory over high riding Croydon & Old Whitgiftians – their fourth straight win – has given Southampton an outside chance of promotion from Regional Division 2.
