FA Cup Jack Crago was Tavistock's two-goal FA Cup hero as the Lambs won 2-1 at Western Premier Division rivals Shepton Mallet to secure a second qualifying round home tie against Southern League 1 South Highworth Town on Saturday September 21.

It was an FA Cup repeat feat for Crago who also scored twice - once from the spot - as Stuart Henderson's Devon side fought back from 3-1 down to secure a 3-3 draw and replay at Mallet. Asa White scored for Mallet last night.
