St Hugh’s were losing their second match in four outings, winning one and drawing the other with their final game to be played against Tarrant High

Meanwhile, the Dalton Hinds-coached Gaynstead High maintained their unbeaten run in the Junior League with a 25-13 win over Meadowbrook High to chalk up their third win of the second round.
