DANNY Penrose rattled in a hat-trick as York Schools' U15s footballers beat Grimsby 4-0 for their first win of the season.

Penrose scrambled the ball in for his opener and then collected an excellent through-pass from Kevin Kozinski ten minutes later to make it 2-0.

Adam Field added a third goal before half-time and Penrose completed his treble when he picked up a loose ball on the edge of the area and fired into the top corner.

York's U13s again impressed with a 6-0 victory over Grimsby.

Playing good attacking football York soon found themselves 2-0 up through Marco Sheperd and Adam Brook, Ryan Qualter adding a third just before half-time.

York carried on where they left off with three more goals in the second period. Joe Dale from close range, then Adam Scorefield and George Riley finished off an impressive team performance.

Ryan Qualter was York's man of the match with a solid midfield performance. Michael Byram was a constant menace from left midfield and York's back four were solid. They have conceded one goal all season.
