Powerful Penrith thrash woeful Wigton
By Leipziger
December 13 2014
Penrith ran out 17-64 winners in a passionate Cumbrian derby at Lowmoor Road today to go joint-fifth in North One West, while condemning Wigton to bottom spot for the Christmas break.
The visitors had a bonus point wrapped up by half-time thanks to a hat-trick from Jamie McNaughton, and went on to score nine tries in all as they posted the division’s second-highest score of the season.
The highest score so far in 2014/15 was achieved by Vale of Lune in an 81-12 victory over Wigton last month, but it will probably be little consolation for the hosts that they at least avoided that embarrassment.
