County Glory for Blackwood
|
|
7 Blackwood players made it to the county finals this year.
The day started with the Under 25 pairs and the over sixties rinks. The Blackwood pair of Oliver Witchell and Lewys Thomas just came up short but there would be another chance for them in the afternoon triples.
Meanwhile the over 60 rink of Brian Keeling, Trevor Hutcherson, Haydn Jenkins and Clive Jenkins were battling well against the well fancied RTB rink. In the end Blackwood grabbed the glory winning by 4 shots.
The 3rd game saw Matthew Harrhy join Lewys and Ollie in the triples against a much talented RTB three.
This game was of the highest quality and it was only in the 17th end where Blackwood shook their opponents and took the win by 7 shots.
