HENLEY Hawks crushed Clifton 52-3 at Dry Leas to maintain second spot.

Captain Tom Allen led the way with two tries as Hawks made it four wins from four.

Fly half Wiliam Blair put Clifton ahead with a fifth-minute penalty.

Henley hit back with a try from scrum half Jack Shaylor, converted by full back James Comben.

Hawks had secured a bonus point after 33 minutes, with Allen’s try brace and one from wing Xavier Andre, all converted by Comben.

Henley continued their blitz after the break, with No 8 Matt Payne, hooker Ant Brennan, plus replacements Tom Haynes and James Winterbottom completing the try tally.

Comben added two more conversions for Hawks, who face a tough trip to Redruth on Saturday.
