First round of the cup 2021/22
Conditions could not have been better for the first County Cup fixture for this age group since 2019!!
The fixture was played on the immaculate Tigers training pitch. A superb surface for running rugby and Harborough didn’t disappoint. An excellent scrum was won against he head and the ball was passed along the whole back line with Robert touching down for an early Harborough try, converted by Charlie. Harborough continued on the front foot with Charlie mopping up scrappy ball to step a Wyggs defender and score in the corner. 14-0.
Wyggs went on the offensive but their attacks were repelled by a rugged defensive line. Ollie P sniffed a chance to step out of the line and intercept the ball, running half the length of the pitch to make the score 21-0 (Finn with the conversion). Two quick tries from Albert and another from Robert (Charlie converting) made the score 33-0 at half time. Albert and Robert both got on the scoreboard again in the second half to build a 47-0 lead. DJ finished the tie off with a number 8 pick up and run from the half way line, scoring under the posts to make the score 54-0.
A superb all round performance, marred only by injuries to Fergie and Sam B. We wish them both a speedy recovery.
