Plymouth College senior teams enjoyed a successful day at Plymouth Albion RFC where the First and Second XVs took on their West Buckland counterparts.

The First XV put in an inspired display against dangerous opponents who were enjoying a good run of success, including a win over local rivals, Kelly College, the week before.

Playing with energy, conviction and ambition, Plymouth exploited the large pitch to maximum advantage and ran in a total of nine tries. Charles Attis (captain) also chipped in with a perfect set of nine conversions and a total personal haul of 23 points. The platform was laid up front where a dominant scrum and well functioning line out ensured that the side enjoyed good primary possession, a commodity too often lacking this season. This allowed front foot attacks to be common place and the outside backs made the most of the quality possession. West Buckland had large sections of the game, but determination, good organisation and communication ensured that the home line was never breached.  Final score 63-0.

In a physical encounter the Second XV came out deserved winners 21-0, a match that was far closer than the score suggested.

Plymouth College play their final fixture this Saturday (3rd December) against Taunton School which looks likely to be an exciting encounter with both sides enjoying similar records this season.
