ROYSTON blooded some new talent in a narrow defeat on Saturday.
They showed pace out wide, and took the lead with a try from Andy Smith, converted by Joe Hilllman.
A hard working pack, notably Alex Hiom, enabled Mark Howard at full back and debutant Tristan Tegg at centre to produce some fine running rugby.
On one occasion the pair linked with wing Dan Ritsema to create 70 metres of flowing play but were unlucky not to increase the lead.
Tegg then went in between the posts to score his first points for the club.
