Inter-Varsity Games : Canterbury Agricultural College First Fifteen Vs Massey, 14 July 1948. Lost 9-6. 

Against Canterbury college the 1st XV played what was probably their best game of the season to emerge victorious by 9-8. With both forwards and backs concentrating all their energies into subduing the opposition by hard tackling and waiting for scoring opportunities to present themselves, the team was able to withstand, over the last part of the game, last ditch attacks by a back line that had run itself into the ground.(Source: 1948 Canterbury Agricultural College Magazine (No. 73 October 1948).
