Game 2 - Keighley v Skipton
Keighley lost their concentration and their positioning early on allowing Skipton to breakaway and score a try.
Keighley respond quickly and excellent work from James Whitcombe and Jack Rodbourne saw Rodbourne going over in the corner to level at 1 try apiece.
Great distribution again from Scrum Half Lennon Curr led to Alex Womersley grabbing a try after a strong run.
Throughout Keighley dominated in the Scrum with good play from Harvey Bird, Harry Gould and Joss McArthur, with a further powerful run seeing James Whitcombe gain his second try of the day.
Skipton did pull a try back but string defensive play from Soel Counsell, Tom Richardson and Keir Welch meant Keighley finished the match on top.
Final Score Keighley 3 Tries (15 points) - Skipton 2 Tries (10 points)
