Mayflower Wednesday 7, University 5.  Mens B Division 21/01/04

The students may have narrowly outscored their hosts by 3 aces, but it was the home side that scored the vital game winning points to record a close 7-5 victory.

The final event was the key moment in the match. Here Neil teamed up with the veteran Dave Atkins. With the match poised at 5 all they narrowly won the first fame 15-10. In the final game the University's Jez Bennett and Neil Prince almost snatched a draw. However, Neil and Dave held their nerve to win by the narrowest margin 17-16.
