Totton College, winners of this year's Under 19 Colleges League, were looking to complete the double when they came up against Barton Peveril College at Millbrook School in the Hampshire Colleges U19 Cup final for men.
However, they were left with too much to do after Barton Peveril had outscored them 20-11 in the first quarter.
Both sides included players from the Solent Stars youth programme with Barry Fitzgerald and Matthew Rodrigues both instrumental in helping Totton's fightback as they reduced the deficit to four points by half time, 38-34.
The points were shared in the third quarter but, in an exciting finale, Dave Ewen's (Totton) four second-half three-pointers were not quite enough to stop Gavin Hart raising the trophy for Barton Peveril as they held off a late challenge to win 77-71. Leading scorers: Barton Peveril: S Guyer 23 S Ibbs 19. Totton: D Ewens 20 M Rodrigues 18.
