Somerset 2 South

Burnham II 17, Wells II 14

BURNHAM II battled to a narrow 17-14 victory at the BASC.

This was a much anticipated encounter to test the force of a nearly full second team squad.

In contrast to the previous week, Burnham were thick on the ground, but still had squad members absent on other duty.

Matt Slater wore the captain’s armband for the day, and in a battling performance, Burnham defended solidly and took their chances to seal victory.
