Rory Harper breaking the deadlock after 30 minutes,a mazy run in the penalty area taking on and beating the left full-back, then curling the ball around the keeper from a tight angle near the goal line.
The Hares then relented to stout defending making it through to half time without conceding further loss, but Harper made it two in the opening minutes of the second half, getting across the keeper at the near post to finish with a powerful header fro Redhead superb delivery from a corner.Further chances arose but the Pedlars were unable to convert, sound goalkeeping by March custodian leaving the margin respectable for the visitors after a domineering and impressive display by the home side.
