WOLVERHAMPTON gave a solid all-round team performance to get the better of a gutsy King’s Lynn side 51-41 at Monmore on Monday.
Every member of a full-strength Parrys International Wolves team contributed well with reserves Ricky Wells and Lukasz Sowka piling up the points.
Former Wolves man Niels Kristian Iversen was brilliant for the visitors with a stunning 17-point haul to keep his side in the hunt for a consolation league point.
He combined with another former Wolf, Daniel Nermark, for a big 8-1 in Heat 5 which pulled the Norfolk outfit back into contention.
There was a nasty spill, however, when Nermark fell in Heat 8 and Sowka – giving his best display in Wolves colours so far – went into the fourth bend fence and withdrew from the rest of the meeting.
Wolves boss Peter Adams said: “King’s Lynn are a hard team to shake off and although we took control early on they hit back.
“Niels Kristian Iversen learnt a lot when he spent a season with us and he was magnificent tonight. But I’m pleased with the result, in fact I’m delighted.”
KING’S LYNN 41: Niels-Kristian Iversen 17, Mads Korneliussen 9, Maciej Janowski 6, Daniel Nermark 3+2, Kevin Wolbert 3, Dakota North 2, Jordan Frampton 1+1.
