Ruston Sports captain Barry McGann receives the Ron Eaglen Cup from Stephen Wilson.
TWO goals apiece from Barry McGann and Karl Hutchinson helped Ruston Sports win the Ron Eaglen Cup following a 4-1 against FC Hunters Leap.
McGann set them on their way with a near-post header on 17 minutes, before his side were awarded a penalty four minutes before the break, which Hutchinson converted.
The duo then grabbed more glory in the second half as Hutchinson (79) and McGann (82) wrapped up the game.
Sandwiched between the Ruston goals in the second half, came what turned out to be a consolation for Hunters Leap.
In the 82nd minute, Chris Funnell worked himself into a shooting position on the right side of the penalty area before finishing confidently by firing past Phil McGann in the Ruston goal.
Funnell, unlike some of the crowd, was not distracted by McGann's bright pink goalkeeper's jersey.
