Ponte had to beat Scarborough and score four tries as well to earn an extra bonus point to be sure of edging out rivals Moortown for the Regional Two North East title and they achieved their ambition with a brilliant first half display that blew their final day opponents away.
They were already 26-0 up by the half-hour mark with the four tries already accounted for – all scored by unstoppable number eight Sam Millard – and went on to win 33-7 to finish top of the table and clinch amazing back to back promotions.
