Tyler Sibbick's hat-trick helped Larkhall Athletic round off their campaign with a 3-2 home victory over Ilfracombe Town on Saturday.
The Larks were already assured of a fifth-place finish in Toolstation Premier Division before the game but came from behind twice to avenge the 1-0 defeat they suffered at Ilfracombe a week previously.
They trailed after five minutes but Joe Strading set up Tyler Sibbick to equalise from a tight angle.
Keeper Chris Snoddy then saved the first of two Ilfracombe penalties – plus the rebound effort – but was powerless to stop the second after himself fouling a visiting player in the box.
Sibbick restored parity with a spot-kick of his own in the second half and then produced a moment of individual brilliance to grab the winner, beating three Ilfracombe players before scoring from outside the box.
Larks were beaten 3-0 at home by Hallen last Wednesday, while Bitton suffered a 4-3 home defeat to Willand Rovers in their final game of 2012-13. Mark Salter netted twice and Mitch Tippens once for the hosts.
Bradford Town conclude their Division 1 campaign at Elmore on Wednesday night.
