With the 1st XV having a week off, the mighty Ventnor seconds made the long journey over to Southampton on Saturday to take on a strong Southampton side.
An enthralling game played in the best manner by both sides, with the only sour note being the Hurricanes could not manage bring any tangible points home with them.
A day hit with nippy conditions took a bit of heat out of Round 5 of the Snows Group Hampshire 2 match between Ventnor and their geographically closest neighbour.
