The First Grade Bears challenged the Eagles in what was a high-scoring game.
Young were right in it during first half as Benny Wallwork set the standard with a full length of the field try to open the scorecard.
The Bears held the lead and went into the break in front, 16-10.
Unfortunately for the Bears the cards didn’t fall their way in second half as they found themselves defending a majority of the time.
Club person, Peter Campbell, said Young was slapped with around eight consecutive penalties as a result of poor discipline.
“You cannot score a try without the ball, and we had zero possession,” he said.
Eugowra took advantage of the situation to go on a scoring spree and ultimately win themselves the game, 36-26.
In the women’s division an undermanned Young team lost 24-nil to the third-placed Eagles.
