Wellingborough 2nds 35 – 5 Buzzards 2nds
After a blistering start by Wellingborough saw Buzzards 12 points down within the opening minutes of kick off but Buzzards hit back with a hard fought try of their own through Gary Low.
Wellingborough were giving away multiple penalties through the sustained pressure that Buzzards put them under but the away side were unable to convert the pressure into points.
The score remained close until the 60th minute when Wellingborough brought on 6 replacement players many with a very recent 1st team experience and not surprisingly Wellingborough’s points tally rose
The game finished 35-5 but a very spirited Leighton Buzzard side put in a very creditable of a performance. The return fixture at Wright’s Meadow is in mid-January.
Next Week’s fixture is at home against Old Northamptonians 3rds
