TEIGNMOUTH U10s dipped to a 25-15 defeat by Withycombe in a game of fine running rugby.

Withies broke the deadlock to score, however the Teigns replied with a typical bullocking run taking Brad Breslan over to score in the corner.

Withycombe seemed to be more physical in the contact area securing their own ball with ease and often stealing the Teigns'. Two more tries followed before the break.

The second half started in fine fashion for the Teigns. A fine brace of tries from Lewis Orchard got them back into contention.

Tim Barbot, Tom Cairns and Breslan all ran well on the attack.

Withycombe had the last word with a deserved try.

A second game was played in similar fashion to the first with even honours in all areas.

Strong running by Robert Sears enabled him to bag a hat-trick with Lewis Orchard grabbing a further two tries in a 25-20 win for the Teigns.
