STOKE Gabriel & Torbay Police secured a first away win of the season in their latest outing.

There were three 16-year-olds in the squad who made the trip to Bishops Lydeard and they all held their own and then some.

Pressure on the Bishops defence paid off early on with Tom Dunlop making it 1-0 to Stoke after 11 minutes. This was still the score at the break with a clearance off the line from the hosts being the most notable chance for a second.

A second goal did come and it was Stoke who got it, courtesy of Ben Aldous in the 50th minute.

Saul Vanes beat the offside trap to make it 3-0 15 minutes later and give the visitors a buffer. A deflected effort denied Stoke the clean sheet in added time but they earned a big three points on the road in the Southwest Peninsula League either way.
