Peterborough Lions award winners were from the left Marius Andrijauskas, Jack Lewis, Tom Dougherty and Ashley Hill.

Long-serving Andrijauskas, a Lithuanian international second row forward, and hooker Lewis, who three seasons ago was plying his trade on the bottom rung of the English Clubs Championship ladder with Thorney, were announced as joint winners of the Coaches Player of the Season shield.

“They couldn’t be separated,” said Lions chairman Andy Moore. “Both were worthy winners.

“Marius has been with us a long time and last season was probably his best while Jack still kept plugging away even when we brought two new hookers in. He never stopped battling for his place in the team and actually ended up playing in 17 games.”
