RYLANDS Sharks will travel to Blackbrook in the BARLA Lancashire Cup quarter final thanks to Saturday’s victory.

A brace of tries from both centre Paul Reynolds and winger Adam Coley helped them on their way and raised hopes of a repeat of last season when they reached the final.

Sharks built up a 14-0 advantage by half time and a crucial score from hooker Billy Sheen, converted by first-half try scorer Antony Rourke, put them out of sight.

Outstanding for Rylands were Sheen, Rourke, Carl Leach and Carl Lloyd.
