Sidmouth and Ottery Hockey Club (SOHC) men’s 1st XI turned round a half-time deficit to net a point from their Conference South 2-2 draw with Isca III.
SOHC made a good start and moved the ball around well prior to a clinical finish by Jack Ellison, who flicked the ball off the foot of a defender and over the line.
Isca then won a short corner and converted it with a drag flick and then struck again with a tap-in at the back post to hold a 2-1 half-time advantage.
After the break SOHC were the dominant force and it was no more than they deserved when Jon Hext netted via a well-worked short corner routine.
There's a double-header of action this weekend for the men's 1st XI .
