GOALS from Brealey, Kinsey, Ord and Venner won this derby match for Crediton but no-one could dispute the passionate way Argyle tried to win for themselves.
From the start Crediton played the better football with Okehampton restricted to occasional breaks.
Calmer play may have seen them make better use of their opportunities but trying to strike early made life easy for Camp, in the visitors goal.
Midway through the half, Crediton scored as a long range effort sneaked in by the right hand upright.
With the half closing Crediton scored a controversial second. A free kick was so quickly taken that the ball was still rolling and the resultant pass was neatly tucked away with home supporters baying at the referee. Even Crediton's manager was to admit the injustice after the match, in having to agree the ball was moving.
Okehampton stepped up their game after the break and won more possession but failed to create clear chances.
Even so, they were grateful to man of the match Jon Carter for a clutch of good saves including one totally reactive tip over.
Schoolmate Steve Kinsey was to finally kill off the home side as he somehow evaded lunging challenges from Darren Moore and Stepto, to slip the ball in from the narrowest of angles.
Tom Powell continued his scoring run by smashing in a shot that Camp could only half parry, the ball looping over him and in.
Time was running out by then and Crediton were to add a fourth deep into unexplained stoppage time — rubbing salt into the wounds of Okehampton.
The Argyle U15s have another break now and face Countess Wear on the 27th, in their last match.
