FITNESS FIRST

By Celebrated Author, Jon Sharpe

From the kick off, a move in the centre saw James Ackers beat 2 men for pace and go over for the try which was converted by Alex Baldwin, 0-7. Otliensians pulled one try back and a converted penalty on half time made the score 8-7 at the break.

Otliensians brought on some fresh legs for the second half and scored after several phases, the try was converted, 15-7. Fitness was beginning to tell with 20minutes to go and Skipton's defenses were stretched, Otliensians going over in the corner, 20-7. Good defence led to a turnover for Skipton with Charlie Brown & Rick Willsher taking ball down the middle, the ball was then moved wide for Baldwin to score in the corner, the conversion was unsuccessful to leave the final score at 20-12.
