Wairarapa College scored a comprehensive 70-run win over Lansdowne in their Umpires Cup senior men's interclub cricket match played at Wairarapa College on Saturday.
The students batted first and although only three of their batsmen got into double figures they still managed to reach the respectable score of 177.
Opener Gareth Pottinger carried his bat through the 47 overs in making 55, including four fours, while Sam Monaghan came in at number seven and blasted five fours and two sixes in his 44. Perter Sigvertsen with 13 was best of the rest.
Spearheading the Lansdowne attack were Willie Thomson (2-22), Choi Jackson (3-12) and Dean Goodin (2-12).
The depleted Lansdowne batting line-up never looked like reaching their target, reeling from 17-4 to be all out for just 107.
Lower order player Goodin had one five and two fours in his 24 and Banks five fours in his 25.
Wairarapa College used six bowlers in all with Peter Sigvertsen (2-17), S. Evans (3-18) and Darren Jones (3-11) all having good success.
