A much-changed Stewartry recorded a comfortable win over Carrick at Greenlaw on Saturday.
The Blacks’ squad had 12 changes from the side that won in the National Shield quarter-finals the week before, some of the younger members getting their chance against a Carrick side who had managed just one league win all season.
However, they proved to be stuffy opposition, playing a hard attacking game, before Stewartry recorded a four point try win to stay five points ahead of third-placed Cumnock in Tennent’s West Division One.
