OXFORDSHIRE ended their Home Counties League campaign on a high note with an emphatic 147-102 win over Bucks at South Oxford.

Oxon were always in charge as they claimed victory on five of the six rinks to finish fourth in the table with Kent champions.

Nick Welsh's four of Simon Hastings, Shaun Claridge and Norman Rae notched Oxon's biggest win with a 34-13 victory after racing 16-0 ahead over the first five ends.

Mike Petersen's side of Steve Gibson, David Bullock and Mervyn Gleeson ran out 23-14 winners.

Barry Lambourne's quartet of Mike Keen, Ali Simpson and George Moon always held the upper hand as they triumphed 22-15.

But Colin Whitehead's rink of Mark East, Melvin Brain and Gordon Roper came from behind, turning a 12-4 deficit after ten ends into a 24-17 victory.

Howard Watts' four of Mick Nash, Bob Gilkes and Kevin Alder were a shot down after ten ends, but then pulled away to win 21-15.

Oxon's hopes of a clean sweep were dashed when Paul Comley's rink of Paul Boffin, John Guest and Ian Whelpton went down 28-23 after being all square after 15 ends.
