Dave Scriven posted a hat-trick and Tom Clough, Andy Hirst, Ben Cousen, Ross Gratton and Eddie Filtness also made the whitewash. Gary Proctor landed five conversions.
West Bowling A’s former Hunslet Hawks prop Steve Pryce showed his prowess with a powerhouse three-try performance in his side’s 28-14 win at Kings Cross. Danny Loxam and Ian Wormald made the try line and Bob Benn kicked four goals.
Odsal Sedbergh’s long-serving player-coach Gary Priestley signed off with a 54-22 Division Three home win against Hoyland Vikings.
