Two first-half goals from Jack Biggs could not prevent Oxford Hawks going down 4-2 away to Old Cranleighans in South League Premier Division 1.

Hawks led 2-0 at half-time after Biggs opened the scoring from a short corner and added a second from a drag flick.

In the second half, Hawks went down to ten men and Cranleighans capitalised scoring two quick goals and snatched victory with strikes from two short corners.

In Premier Division 2, Oxford Hawks 2nd went down 4-1 at home to Purley Walcountians, the hosts’ only goal coming from Ben Roe.

Oxford had no answer to Ashford’s drag-flick specialist Shujah Ur Rehman, who scored a hat-trick in the home side’s 3-2 win in Regional Division 1.

Ashford went 2-0 ahead, before Oxford replied with a Matt McKeown short corner goal and an equaliser five minutes from time by Dan Smyth. But Ashford nabbed a late winner.

Oxford 2nd trounced Staines 2nd 8-0, their goals coming from eight different scorers – Hamish Currie, Dave Hibbert, Jake Taylor, Nick Greenwood, Sam Clarke Warry, Ben White, Nick Mayne and Dan Strange.

Jacob Deacon scored twice as Witney returned to winning ways with a 5-2 victory at home to Thame in Berks, Bucks & Oxon Division 1.

Deacon gave Witney an early lead, while Rory Heaslip put them 2-1 ahead at half-time.

Witney lost Dan Wallis for a time due to a green card, but once they were back to a full complement, they stretched their lead to 4-1 with further goals from Ben Moss and Alex Gray before Deacon got the fifth.

Bicester lost 5-3 at home to OMT 2nd, their goals coming from Alex Wilson, Will Hartley and Dave Sutcliffe.
