SKOLARS gave a brave account of themselves at Zip World Stadium.

The Betfred League One round 13 clash was in the balance until the dying minutes, until Reece Briers iced the game for North Wales Crusaders with a try.

The lads from the capital trailed just 16-12 at halftime in Colwyn Bay and pushed the Welsh outfit all the day. The fulltime score was 30-16.
