Notes:            
            Middlesex hosted the traditional rivals, St. George's, for the last home match for the seniors and put together two strong halves to win decisively, 7-2.  Middlesex jumped on the board three times in the first thirty minutes, thanks to two hard-working finishes from Liam Tasker and a strong cutback move and finish by Kwabena Kwakwa.  Despite the early lead, St. George's looked consistently dangerous on the counterattack through Liam Rhatigan, who rattled the cross bar with his first open look at the net from beyond twenty yards.  Rhatigan was rewarded for his graft in the 39th minute as a poor square pass across the Middlesex back line was picked off and fed to the Dragons' striker for a clinical finish.  The half ended 3-1 to Middlesex, but St. George's had their chances and started the first five minutes of the second half looking hungry to claw their way back into the match.  Andrew Parker then tucked home from a Liam Tasker run along the byline and Kwabena Kwakwa scored another on a feed from Parker.  Tate Michelson then got behind the backline on a counterattack to score another for St. George's.  Tasker and Kwakwa both completed their hat tricks in the closing stages of the match to cap the home victory for Middlesex.  Special recognition for Middlesex goes to their seven seniors: Kofi King, Neto Nwogbo, Ethan MacDougall, Walker Massey, and Captains Ollie Cheever, Liam Tasker, and Anyolo Makatiani.
