The hosts notched 18 individual A event wins, including 11 event maximums.
The 60-strong Harriers did just enough to prevail on 214pts, with Andover & Overton (201pts) the nearest challengers, while team Dorset (131pts) and Havant (128.5pts) completed the field.
Croydon's female throwers led the way, and didn't drop a point all afternoon in the four throwing disciplines. Tamara Reid notched a double win in the discus (30.54m) and shot (9.54m), and was supported by Saskia Navratnum (25.82m, discus) and Anieshka Mido (8.46m, shot).
Mido then enjoyed her own triumph in the hammer (30.01m) with Emma Fossett (27.83m) taking the B event honours. Emma then teamed with her elder sister Zoe in the javelin, with the pair throwing lifetime bests of 34.10m and 29.29m respectively.
In the sprints, Ashleigh Clarke triumphed in the 100m (12.3s) & 200m (25.5s), with Irene Afriye (B 100m, 13.4s) and Fredericka Peart (26.6s) providing solid support to ensure maximum points.
On the men's side, the men triumphed in every A track event between 100m-1500m, and there were another three triumphs on the field.
Afam Obi-Adewole broke the 50-second barrier over 400m recording 49.7secs, and followed that up with a 200m victory in 22.5secs. Chris Clarke took the B honours in 22.9secs.
More event maximums on the track came from Damien Powell (11.2secs) and Kyle Andrews (11.5secs) in the 100m, and in the 1500m with captain Peter Chambers (4:11.5) and Brendan Murphy (4:14.5, PB).
On the field, Richard Irving topped the standings in the shot (12.30m) and hammer (32.87m) and was supported by Andrew Milner (10.21m, shot) and Chris King (25.75m, hammer) to ensure maximum points.
Further victories came courtesy of senior debutant Robert Sakala (110m hurdles, 18.0secs), David White (800m, 2:01.3) and Richmond Baah (javelin, 48.37m).
Croydon brought the curtain down on the day with three convincing relay wins.
After two fixtures, Croydon lie top of the table in the 16 team 2nd division, but face a tricky run-in, in the three fixtures remaining.
