Barons cruise to win over depleted Dragons

TC Cars SolihULL BARONS 16 : 0 THE DRAGONS

The TC Cars Solihull Barons came out comfortable winners against a Dragons team which has struggled much of the season with both squad size and quality and while their ship has been steadied slightly the result was only ever likely to go one way.

The first period began brightly enough for the Barons but with the visitors putting in enough fight to suggest, at least for a while, that the Barons could not take things entirely for granted. Early shots from the Barons tended to go straight to the keeper but by the eighth minute the combination of the Solihull first line D of Daniel Harrison and Marcus Maynard opened the scoring for the Barons. Into the eleventh minute the lead was doubled as a shot by Harrison came back off the boards and went in via a deflection off of the Dragons netminder’s back. By periods end the scoreline had eased out further as both Tom Soar and Andy Whitehouse converted powerplay opportunities.
