Somerset Cup 2015/16 Quarter-Final
In a helter-skelter of a game which had fourteen tries including a debut score for colt Tom Sugg, it was Weston who held sway despite some quite glorious counter attacking by Bath.
Weston scored straight from the kick off when a Sparks take led to right wing Chris Young crossing. The University replied immediately through Adams to set the tone for the rest of the game.
Some glorious tries by both sides brightened up a dark afternoon and Weston always just had the upper hand, notably in the tight play where the front five led by Ollie Streeter caused significant problems
