North Berwick lose first league match of the season

North Berwick lost their first BT East One match of the season as they were defeated by title rivals St Boswells.

.

The East Lothian men had come out on top in their first ten league encounters this term, but number 11 was to prove a game too far for them.

They headed down to the Borders and returned with a 17-15 loss against a St Boswells side, who are still undefeated.

Murray West and Angus Elder scored NB’s tries while Liam West kicked a penalty and a conversion, but they could only gain a losing bonus point.

Murrayfield Wanderers are in third place after they went to Forrester and won 37-3.

Linlithgow are on the same number of points as Wandies, but were defeated 17-11 at Hawick Harlequins at the weekend.

Dunbar were comfortable 33-0 winners over Hawick Linden at home, while Dalkeith lost out 15-13 at home to Duns.

Penicuik are still out on top in BT East Two after they edged out Leith 10-0.

Inverleith got the better of Liberton 15-3 while Ross High came back from Langholm with only a losing bonus point from an 8-6 defeat.

Edinburgh University Medics pushed BT East Three leaders Earlston close, but lost 8-6 while RDVC lost 29-15 to Walkerburn and Queensferry lost 55-12 to Gala YM.
