The teams were all square after the front nine holes and the match looked evenly balanced
Barnard and Howard stole the initiative by winning holes 10, 11 and 12 before McGlashan cut the lead to two with an excellent birdie on 13.
The lead was back to three after the 14th and the match was sealed on the 16th for a 4 and 2 victory.
“We’ve been strong over the back nine all competition and it was great to do that again,” Howard said.
