The Badgers could only manage a Matthew Theaker touchdown, while Gavin Pascoe slotted a conversion and a penalty.
Meanwhile, Six East’s Caerleon also bagged a shock win, doing just enough to defeat Usk 19-18 at Red Shed Meadow.
The visitors were outscored on the try count but some excellent goal kicking from Josh Jones converting Dai Burgess’ touchdown and firing home four penalties was enough to keep their Cup dream alive.

The hosts crossed twice through Gareth Kingman and Lee Bevan, with Gareth Goodrich producing an outstanding display with the boot, firing home four penalties and two conversions.
Division Four East side New Tredegar were made to work for their win at lower league Abertysswg, eventually triumphing 9-0 thanks to three Colin Jones penalties.
Up north, there were comfortable wins for Two North highfliers Dolgellau who dispatched Shotton Steel 18-10, while COBRA bagged a 22-12 home success over Colwyn Bay.
