Resilience the key for tough Adams

Adams Grammar from Newport came from behind twice to beat their Shropshire rivals Ellesmere College. Intelligent use of the ball enabled Scott Thistleton to score out wide and Oliver Newton came into the line from full back to complete another fine move.

Adams' superior fitness told in the last quarter and Ellesmere came under intense pressure from an Adams team,who rubber-stamped their victory over the same opponents earlier in the season.

The win earns them a plum fourth round home tie with tournament stalwarts Mount StMary's from Sheffield.
