In Division 1, Tweedmouth Amateurs beat Stow 5-1 at home with goals from Michael Antcliffe (2), Kieran Lee, Yassine Essahli and an own goal.

Tweedmouth remain bottom of the table on six points, but their second successive victory is a marked improvement and gives the Five Arches side a massive boost.

In the C Division, Highfields United were big 9-0 home winners over Lauder with four goals from Jones, two from Jeffrey and one each from Lee, Wood and Smolenskij.

Highfields are now fourth in the table on 11 points.

Berwick Colts, who are second on 16, drew 2-2 away to Gala Fairydean Amateurs.
