THE Lambs were up to full strength for this rearranged fixture with Paul Adcock returning from suspension.
A bitterly cold wind blowing diagonally across the pitch made conditions difficult. Tavistock had the wind in their backs for the first half and pinned the home side back but were caught too many times from an eager flag waving assistant.
Tom Barwell saw his free kick go just over after 25 minutes and Paul Smith?s header was cleared away. Andy Meeds had to tip over a placed shot then did well to save at point blank range right on the stroke of half-time.
Meeds was again in action early in the second half and the Lambs were finding it difficult to compose themselves in the last third of the field.
A couple of half chances came near the close of play but it was a worthy point on a cold night in West Cornwall that puts the Lambs into ninth position in the table.
