Varsity Match<br />
February 19th 2006, Oxford<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> 68 – 82 Oxford<br />
The <strong>Cambridge</strong> basketball teams headed down to Oxford for their Varsity matches, full <strong>of</strong> confidence after strong performances<br />
in the regular season from all three squads.<br />
The Women’s Blues played second, with <strong>Cambridge</strong> breaking Oxford’s opening press well but struggling to hit jump shots and<br />
free throws on Oxford’s unfamiliar rings. As the first half unfolded, Oxford pulled out a strong lead due to some impressive<br />
outside shooting and excellent boxing out on rebounds. The final shot <strong>of</strong> the half summed up Oxford’s form, as their shooting<br />
guard sank a buzzer beater from 2 metres beyond the 3 point arc to end the half an incredible 40 – 17 to Oxford. It was clear<br />
that drastic action was needed and the <strong>Cambridge</strong> Coach made changes to the line up and strategy to try to pull the game<br />
