Golf round-up: Shropshire & Herefordshire Under-18s finish level pegging with Derbyshire
Shropshire & Herefordshire Under-18s shared the spoils with Derbyshire in their final Midlands League fixture of the season at Church Stretton Golf Club.
The boys initially struggled to get a foothold in the match early doors, with lead duo Zach Banks (Shifnal) & Ben Steventon (Telford) going down 4&3.
Retiring Harry Watts (Ludlow), who has been a loyal county servant over the years, couldn't conjure up a winning final performance along with Harry Slater (Wrekin) and just lost out on the last.
But Brodie Miller (Telford) & Rhys Thomas (Llanymynech) got S&H back in the match with a 4&3 success before the experienced coupling of Charlie Boys (Hill Valley) & Isaac Jones (Oswestry) fought back to earn half a point.
Trailing 2.5-1.5 going into the afternoon singles, Banks (4&2) brought S&H level, while Steventon earned the hosts another half.
Watts lost 3&2 as Derbyshire took the lead once more, but Slater recorded a %&4 success to level things up once more.
Miller (4&3) gave S&H the lead for the first time and Thomas (2&1) ensured they would be taking home at least a draw.
However, the final two matches went the way of the visitors as Boys and Jones both slumped to defeat.
