Okehampton Argyle Reserves . . . . . 2

Cheriton Fitzpaine . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1

WITH four new faces in the team (King, Chapman, Leyman, Ditchburn), Okehampton looked a much more balanced side to the one that was relegated from Senior 4 last season.

Even so it took a penalty given against Argyle in the very first minute to get this home side going.

Cheriton converted from the spot kick, giving the impressive Leyman no chance in goal.

After this Argyle dominated the match for long periods. Maddox and Chapman controlled the midfield, enabling Back and King to push on down the wings.

On the rare occasions Cheriton did break through, the away side came up against very strong home defence, marshalled well by Wilson and Ditchburn.

The home side?s goals were scored by Pengelly and Williams, whose tireless efforts up front made sure Okehampton got off to a winning start this season.

This week, Intermediate Cup, kick off 2.30pm, Colaton Raleigh (home).
