At the short breather Vidyartha led 19/8.

Vidyartha simply dominated in a 10 try spree where the Kingswoodians could reply with only two tries. The Rabdles Hills school was simply a mismatch and Vidyartha looked a threatening side and their three quarter line was fast moving which is their strength. They completed their second win three games earlier beating Joes in the opener. Vidyartha on this encounter against Kingswood with bonus point.
