Halton Farnworth Hornets U16s 36 Hunslet Parkside 0
HALTON beat yet another Yorkshire outfit to progress to the semi finals of the X-Blades BARLA National Cup – but at a cost.
A growing injury list meant Hornets had just 13 players, and that was reduced to 12 men after eight minutes when Alex Clare left the field with a fractured ankle.
With Sheridan, Hughes, Wainwright, Owens and Gilmore all scoring tries, and Sheridan getting three conversions, Hornets went in at half time leading 26-0.
Second tries from Gilmore and Wainwright concluded an impressive performance by 12 players.
