BUILTH WELLS treated their home fans to a victory in their penultimate league match at The Groe.
The Bulls beat visitors Cwmgors 34-17 to claim a Swalec League 2 West Central victory and reverse a defeat, at the hands of their visitors just three days earlier.
Builth had travelled to the Upper Swansea Valley in midweek but lost 18-10 in the Wednesday, May 2 fixture.
However on Saturday, with sweltering temperatures, Builth scored an early unconverted try but surrendered the advantage when they failed to gather the restart. Dylan Hills gathered for Cwmgors and passed to Rob Clive who scored. Permit player Paul Spowert kicked the conversion to put the visitors ahead 5-7.
Spowert put Cwmgors further ahead with a penalty but Builth scored a converted try to take the regain the lead.
The topsy-turvy game then saw Cwmgors go ahead 12-17 when Cerith Dennard scored under the posts but Buith’s driving maul from a line out, just before the halftime, drew the home side level and the conversion, by the Builth full back, gave the home side a 19-17 advantage at the break.
Builth turned on the style in the final 20 minutes of the second half, following an evenly contested third quarter, to score two further tries, one of which was converted, and a penalty for a convincing 34-17 scoreline.
The result puts Builth in third place in the table on 65 points, four above Ystradgynlais. The Bulls entertain Nantyfyllon at the Groe on Saturday, May 12 (2.30pm).
