Gwalia Lightning ran in seven tries as they swept to a 43-7 victory over Edinburgh in the Celtic Challenge.

In a tight first half at Hive Stadium, prop Maisie Davies crossed twice for the visitors either side of an Edinburgh penalty try.

It was a totally one-sided contest after the break though as the Welsh outfit asserted control.

Tries from Bryonie King, Sian Jones, Catherine Richards and a double for Lily Terry ensured a comprehensive Gwalia win.

They have won four of their five matches in the competition, while Edinburgh have tasted victory just once.
