"We just clicked. Sam was among many to shine."

The Warriors academy side beat Huddersfield 20-8, Stefan Marsh, Sam Cunningham, Matt Sarsfield and Joe Mellor scoring tries. Marsh kicked two goals. John Pendlebury's side, second in the table behind St Helens, travel to Hull KR on Saturday (2.30pm).
Reserves hooker Sam Gee, grandson on Wigan great Ken, will play for England Students in the University World Cup which starts in Australia this Thursday. Gee is an Edge Hill College student.
