Under 14 Match Report
SUNDAY 21st Otober 2007
Lutterworth 3pts v Towcester 7pts
Another
desperately
close game saw
Lutterworth u14 take on
Towcester
and finish up on the losing side. If pressure and possession counted for
anything, then
Lutterworth would have walked this game.
Lutterworth
pounded the Towcester
line in the early part of the half, the pressure resulting in a well
struck penalty from
Lemmon.
Towcester
hit back through a try from close range from their number 8 who was the
pivotal player in their side. The res of the game was a story of
Lutterworth
just not quite making the most of their opportunities. Try as they might,
they could not c
ross the whitewash, and Towcester
held firm to run out 7- 3 winners.
The last 20 minutes was played as a development game to allow some
meaningful game time for all the players. With
Towcester
best player, the number 8 staying on the field, it was always going to be
a difficult task, but
Lutterworth
constructed a great try from a scrum in centre field. The ball was moved
by Lee-Everton
to Luke, who blasted past 2 defenders. When he was finally hauled down,
quick hands resulted in a huge overlap, which was converted in to a try.
The conversion was narrowly missed by
Lemmon.
