NEYLAND will play Haverfordwest and Whitland will take on Kilgetty in the semi-finals of the Duggie Morris Cup.

Neyland made it through on Thursday (Jun 7) as they beat Cresselly by five wickets thanks to an excellent century from Paul Murray.

Cresselly batted first and made a good total of 161-4 from their innings.

Although the home side took five wickets they were unable to stop Murray who finished not out on 100 to see Neyland through.

Also on Thursday, Kilgetty went through to the last four as they beat Lawrenny by 18 runs.

Kilgetty batted first and scored 125-7 with Kurtis Marsh top scoring on 66. Lawrenny’s Harry Thomas took two wickets and Brad McDermott-Jenkins finished with figures of 2-16.

Thomas then scored 26 in Lawrenny’s reply but some excellent bowling restricted them well as they finished short of their target.

Marsh took three wickets for the loss of 18 runs while Toby Poole claimed two wickets for the home side.

On Tuesday (Jun 5), holders Whitland made it through as they beat Carew by seven wickets.

Carew batted first and made 132-8 in their innings with Nic Scourfield scoring 27 and Gareth Lewis also making the same score.

Whitland then made their target in fine style as Geraint Jones scored 55 and Jonathan Thomas added 20 runs to go with his earlier figures of 3-13.

Haverfordwest had been due to take on Pembroke on Tuesday but the latter could not fulfil the fixture and the tie was awarded to Haverfordwest.

The first semi-final will take place on Tuesday, June 26, and will see Neyland take on Haverfordwest at Llangwm.

The second semi-final will take place on Thursday, June 28, with Whitland taking on Kilgetty at Cresselly.

HAVERFORDWEST booked their place in the quarter finals of the Pembrokeshire KO Cup, where they will meet Pembroke Dock Harlequins, after beating Aberaeron on Wednesday night (Oct 20).

Despite the atrocious weather conditions, which saw rain batter the Pembroke Road playing surface for much of the game, both sides played an excellent game.

In the end it was the Blues who came out on top with a 44-6 win.

Outside Half Jake Morgan got the Blues rolling early on with a penalty and Rhys Baker then scored the game’s first try to make it 8-0.

Second Row Jack Clancy got his name on the score sheet but the conversion was missed.

Aberaeron then got themselves on the board with a penalty but the Blues were soon back on the attack with Will Blackburn next to go over.

That was converted by Morgan to give the home side a 20-3 lead.

Lewis Tingay and Rhys Baker added further tries for the Blues while Aber added a further penalty as the sides went in at half time with the score reading 30-6.

Early in the second half Tingay added his second try of the night and Morgan added the conversion.

That all but ended any hopes the away side had of getting themselves back in the game and the Blues continued to play despite the pouring rain.

Tingay then completed his hat trick with a try under the posts giving Morgan a simple conversion to make it 44-6.

There was no scoring in the final twenty minutes but the Blues had done the job and booked their place in the last eight.

Their quarter final with the Quins will be played on or before January 22.
