Waterwheelers end season on a high


Tondu saved the best till last in their inaugural season in Division One West with a 40-10 win over UWIC.
It was the students that got off to the better start when full back Rhys Davies went over early on, but the Waterwheelers hit back, first through scrum half Dereck Treadwell touching down, and then prop Lloyd Elliot extended their lead just before the break, with outside half Paul Smithson adding the extras to both to take a 14-5 lead.
After the interval, it was all one way traffic with the hosts running in a further four tries through Stephen Bevan, Darren Thomas, Smithson and Matthew Davies.
UWIC, who finish the season in eighth place after looking like title contenders before the Christmas break, had to be content with a second half consolation try from wing Pierre Tucker as they now turn their attentions towards the National Champioship next season.
Elsewhere, third placed Carmarthen Athletic ended their campaign on a high with a hardfought 18-8 victory over local rivals Whitland.
Athletic outscored their rivals three tries to one with touchdowns from centre Viv Jenkins, and wings Luke Morgan and Owain Herbert, while Mike Sauro slotted a penalty.
