A well drilled Otago pack and skilled backs proved too much for Canterbury in their crucial match in section •: 1 of the South Island under 18 rugby tournament at Ashburton yesterday. Otago won 13-0 with tries to Barry Taylor and Dave Dibson, one converted by Kevin Galliven, who added a penalty goal. Canterbury handicapped itself by running across field and failing to control tapped lineout ball.
