PHIL HODGSON, Millennium Stadium, Saturday
WESTS held off a strong rally by Drighlington to deservedly take the silverware in an entertaining game.
The Green and Golds went in front in the fourth minute, through a try by Elliot Middlemiss, and doubled their lead eight minutes later when Daire Kemp crossed, Jay Hampshire landing his second goal.
Drighlington opened their account with an Akim Matvejev try, but Wests went in at the break 16-4 ahead, man of the match Jake Matthews bustling over.
Jake Littlewood got Drig back into contention on the restart, improving his own score, only for Wests to establish a ten-point cushion when Mikey Ugwo steamed in.
