COUGARS OFF THE MARK AT LAST
SEB STERNIK
Crow Trees, Sunday
NEWCASTLE THUNDER 0
KEIGHLEY COUGARS 52
KEIGHLEY collected their first win of the league season at the ninth attempt courtesy of a nine-try demolition of basement side Newcastle.
Alan Kilshaw’s Cougars showed no mercy against a young and inexperienced Thunder, taking an early lead and building on it throughout the game.
While the result marks an important turning point for Keighley, it also condemned Newcastle to their ninth league loss of the year.
