PRESTON Grasshoppers demolshed Lichfield 18-9.
A Steve Kerry penalty for Hoppers was followed by a try under the posts for Wade Dooley with Kerry converting.
Hoppers' second half performance was disappointing as too often the Lichfield pack took line out ball and drove clear from defensive positions.
A second Kerry penalty was all Hoppers had to show until the last minute. A Hoppers attacking five metre scrum was driven back but the ball was recovered and quick transfer saw Rob Smith cross for an unconverted try.
