Powerful To gives the advantage to Torquay

TORQUAY U15s were 27-24 victors in a closely fought contest against local rivals Totnes.

Torquay started brightly and opened the scoring through Ronan Yeo, only to be pegged back through Totnes' quick running backs.

As half-time approached Ben Ireland put Torquay ahead once again with a try and conversion, ensuring Torquay went into the break with a healthy 12-5 lead.

However, Totnes scored two tries in succession to take the lead in the second half.

Substitute Tyler To used his power to hand the advantage back to Torquay with two tries, and Adam Dart's run from halfway into the corner increased their advantage.

A consolation try from Totnes was not enough, and Torquay held on for the win.
