On the warmest weekend of the season so far, Galloway overcame the disappointment of a cancelled league match on Saturday by securing a rare Scottish Challenge Cup win at Gatehouse on Sunday when they beat Fife club Freuchie by 67 runs.
It was a fine team effort from the Galloway Lodge-sponsored side, including major contributions from Akhil Somarajan with the bat and Alan Lamb with his first five-wicket haul.
The visitors, who had travelled somewhat further than Helensburgh (the opposition who called off the previous day), chose to field first on a good pitch in the match, sponsored by John Watt and Son Coffee and Tea.
