Challenge Cup round-up: Sunday’s second round games

Community club Lock Lane produced the upset of the Challenge Cup second round by beating League 1 side Oldham 24-12 in their own back yard.

Castleford-based amateur side Lock Lane led 10-0 at the break before floodlight failure at Oldham’s Vestacare Stadium caused disruption.

Nathan Fozzard converted a late try to seal a 22-12 win for Lock Lane, taking them into Tuesday’s third round draw.
