Capes’ boys are league champions once again

-

Peterborou­gh Regional College were last week crowned champions of their division in the English Colleges League.

They entertaine­d Colne College from Essex in a Division One East title decider and took the honours 24-10 after a hard physical battle.

They did all their scoring during a dominant first-half display with centre Hudson Rees-Jones (2) and winger Ryan Adams scoring tires.

They led 24-0 at the break and although Colne came more into it in the second half, they managed just one try.

Delighted coach Lewis Capes said: “The boys played out of their skins. Their physicalit­y was on a par with the great teams we have had here in the past. They were determined not to give their title away and should remember this for a long time.”
