Dungannon 22 Dublin University 22

Third-from-bottom Dublin University incredibly picked up their fourth draw of the season so far at Stevenson Park, despite hooker Matt Crockett burrowing over for two tries in their 22-22 tie with Dungannon.

Crockett was on the end of forward drives in either half as the visitors kept pace with a 'Gannon side - bolstered by the return of Ireland Under-21s Gareth Steenson and Ryan Caldwell.

The sides were tied 15-apiece at the break with Crockett and Simon Mitchell on target for trinity and Gillian Carruthers touching down for Jeremy Davidson's side.

Indian international Ajay Subherwal raced over in the right corner for Steenson to convert Dungannon into a 22-15 nearing the hour mark, but Crockett grabbed a share of the spoils for the students, thanks to another catch-and-drive from a lineout.
