A depleted Shrewsbury A side did well to win this match. The two reserves on boards 4 and 5 played sharp attacking chess. Whilst Daniel Lockett fell to a lightning counter attack against Gareth Edwards' French Defence, Andrew Lewis seemed to have over-pressed when he sacrificed a piece for two pawns but eventually caught Steve Tarr's King in the middle of the board to take the point. NB Shrewsbury C beat Shifnal and Telford B 3-2 on the same occasion. Results doubtless on the way.
