Fort William beat Newtonmore as Oban edge Kyles
Fort William's dream return to the Mowi Premiership continued with a spectacular late 5-3 victory at Newtonmore. Oban Camanachd edged Kyles by the odd goal in nine in the clash between the only two south area teams in the top flight at Tighnabruich. Craig Morrison grabbed all four in Caberfeidh's 4-0 home win over Beauly and champions Kingussie defeated visitors Skye 3-1. Lovat and Kinlochshiel fought out a goalless draw in a match switched from Balmacara to Balgate. At The Eilan, Lachie Shaw's early opener was quickly neutralised by Newtonmore's Iain Robinson before Victor Smith gave Fort William a half-time lead. Robinson levelled with a penalty on the hour and Shaw soon edged the visitors ahead again in advance of Matthew Sloss' third equaliser for Newtonmore. And, just as the game seemed to be heading for a draw, Smith completed his hat-trick with twin strikes in the final three minutes. Early goals from James Pringle and Scott MacDonald put Kyles in charge before Lorn Dickie and Ross MacMillan brought Camanachd level by the half-hour. Macdonald's second and a strike from Roan MacVicar a minute later restored Kyles' two-goal cushion but the seven-goal first half still had more to give when Daniel MacVicar got Camanachd's third from the penalty spot. A second-half Malcolm Clark double then swung the final result Camanachd's way. In contrast with Fort William, newly-promoted Beauly's heavy defeat leaves them pointless while Morrison, who scored two in stoppage time, is already on his way to becoming the Premiership's top scorer once again. Iain Fraser and Dylan Borthwick gave Kingussie a 2-0 half-time lead in a game switched from Portree to The Dell. Ruaraidh MacLeod responded for Skye and Kingussie's Thomas Borthwick rounded off the scoring. Lochaber's flying start in the National Division continued with a 4-1 home win over Glasgow Mid Argyll.
