Pride in defeats
Jul 1 2008 by Chris Roberts, Huddersfield Daily Examiner
HUDDERSFIELD’S Reserve and Academy sides suffered defeats at the hands of two of the top teams in their respective competitions.
The Reserves were beaten 24-6 at second-placed St Helens, while the Academy went down 20-8 at Wigan, who are also a second-placed side.
In the game at Saints, Huddersfield were 10-0 down at the break and grabbed a second-half consolation try through second-rower James Martin, with Ryan Heeley landing the conversion.
The Academy put up even stronger resistance at Wigan and remained well in the hunt as they trailed just 10-4 at the break.
The Giants’ points came through tries from Jack Sampson and Michael Lang.
