Shrewsbury Town hit opponents for six while there is a 23-0 victory in Shropshire Premier

Shrewsbury Town hit their opposition for six again as they continued to keep pace at the top of the West Midlands Women’s League Premier Division.

For the second week in a row, Salop found the back of the net six times - with top scorer Katie Doster to the fore once again with her second consecutive hat-trick.

This time they were 6-2 winners at Knowle, Doster being joined on the scoresheet by Alice Raby (two) and Molly Wright.

Midfielder Hetty Arnold said: “The girls played really well in tough conditions and we came together as a team to finish it off.

“It started a bit rough, a bit of getting used to, but when we got our heads together, we had a lot of composure.”

Shrewsbury are two points behind leaders Hednesford Town, who put Shifnal Town to the sword at the Acoustafoam Stadium - leaving the hosts to lick their wounds after a 7-0 defeat.
