Stubborn Bears Bite Back
Redcar Bears 47 Rye House Rockets 43
The Rockets went down to their third defeat in a week but returned from the North West with their first bonus point of the season. It could have been more after they went into the interval level with their opponents. Steve Boxall was again in the points while fellow reserve Danny Betson had his best night since his call up to cover for the injured Luke Bowen. in the end though it was a win for former World Champion Gary Havelock in the final heat that robbed the Rockets of a share of the spoils.
