Heriot's edge Melrose in Scottish Cup final

Heriot's gained revenge for their loss in last season's final to beat Melrose 21-19 in a nail-biting Scottish Hydro Electric Cup final at Murrayfield.

Scott White's 40m penalty in the dying seconds struck the upright, only moments after Graham Wilson's penalty had restored the Edinburgh side's lead.

"That was just incredible," said Bob McKillop, the Heriot's coach.

"It was tense most of the way through but very tense in that last minute and a half.

"Graham Wilson did something similar as a schoolboy here when winning the Scottish Schools Cup with Dollar Academy and we thought this one was a bit too far for him, so we're delighted with him.
