The Cherrypickers scored 16 unanswered points to take a 16-10 win over Tumut at Twickenham on Sunday.
A second half double from 17-year-old Nic Hall set up the win.
After losing their first eight games this season injured captain-coach James Woolford was thrilled to finally come away with the points.
“It was really pleasing and I’m really proud of the boys,” Woolford said.
“It was a super effort.”
After pushing Brothers before the bye, Woolford thought the win had been coming for the club.
“I thought against Brothers we were really good, especially our second half,” he said. “The bye probably came at a bad time for us …. but our second half of footy against Brothers was our best half of footy all year and we brought that into today.”
Adam Pearce had a 100th first grade game for Tumut to forget with the loss and an ankle injury.
