Aberdeen Grammar lost possession whilst pressing hard on the GHA line and the home team raced up the park to score a decisive try which gave them a rather flattering margin at the final whistle. Alex Hagart had a good game scoring a try and kicking 12 points.
Jack Nxon's match report will appear later on Monday.
The 3XV went down 8-57 to a strong Medics side featuring ex-Grammar centre Ashley McCulloch who provided a masterclass in three-quarter attacking play.
That's it for 2014; hostilities restart with the postponed 1XV fixture at Peebles on 3 January.
