An exciting game that produced end to end action throughout finished in an eighteen all draw.

Once again Kendal were slow to wake up in the game by which time Wigton had taken a 10 nil lead through two well taken tries both of which went unconverted.

Then on twenty-five minutes the robust & combative Jack Lashley broke through the defence on a charge to the line. Sean Garnett converted to pull Kendal right back into the contest.

A Wigton penalty close to halftime extended their lead to 7 - 13 at the break.

Kendal came out firing on all cylinders for the second half & forced two early penalties both of which Garnett kicked to level the scores at 13 points a piece.

But almost immediately Wigton hit back scoring their third unconverted try.

Kendal were having none of it & released Lashley on a rampaging run to the try line for him to touch down & level the scores again. Garnett's difficult conversion from wide out was for the victory but his attempt was wide of the posts.
