WESTON-super-Mare rallied from trailing 19-7 to rattle up 28 points without reply and thump Oxford Harlequins 35-19 for a fourth successive win in National Three South West.

Glen Dixon had a day to remember with the boot for the Seasiders, landing six penalties, a drop goal and two conversions for a personal haul of 25 points. Centres James Reed and James Mackay touched down.

Three Joe Hall penalties helped Cleve go 9-0 clear of Coney Hill before the home side went on to win 28-0 with tries from prop Andy O'Donnell, Ben Loosemore and flanker Tom Pool.

Clevedon edged out struggling Torquay Athletic 13-3, with touchdowns from Owen Biggins and fly-half Steve Johnson who also added a penalty.

Under-strength Avonmouth slipped 9-5 at home to Chosen Hill, Neil Evans being driven over for his side's only points.

Barton Hill continued their good recent form in Western Counties North with a 13-7 home success against Burnham-on-Sea.

Lock Shane Hancock and full-back Joe Samson claimed Barts' tries, with fly-half Jack Steer booting a penalty.

North Bristol bounced back from the disappointment of their derby reverse at Thornbury to secure a 13-0 defeat of high-flying Drybrook.

Dan Snow booted North in front with a penalty in the 20th minute and took himself into three figures for the season with another effort soon after the break.

But relentless pressure produced only one try, No 8 Nigel Smith battering his way over, Snow converting to wrap up the points.
