LEAGUE action was put on the back-burner as clubs turned their focus towards the cup.

Wrexham’s run in this season’s Welsh Division One Cup was ended by a 20-7 home loss at the hands of Ruthin.

It was the hosts who made the better start and Lloyd Roberts’ try was converted by Jacob Hughes to put Wrexham 7-0 ahead after half-an-hour.

However, two unconverted tries from Ruthin turned things around to hand them a seven-point advantage by the break.

Two further unconverted tries sealed the deal for Ruthin in the second half.

Division One North leaders Nant Conwy progressed with a 33-0 verdict at Bala, while Caernarfon got the better of Bethesda 22-10.
