\nSIMON Stead hailed his Sheffield side after they dominated defending league champions Belle Vue on home shale as part of their May Day Bank Holiday double.<\/p>\n

The Tru7 Group Tigers cruised to a 57-33 victory at Owlerton – their third straight home outing that has finished with that scoreline.<\/p>\n

Sheffield scored seven 5-1 maximums and recorded just three last places against the Aces as they again demonstrated their credentials in the Steel City.<\/p>\n

It saw them easily claim the aggregate point 101-79 as well after they narrowly missed out in a last heat decider 46-44 earlier that same afternoon in Manchester.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re the much happier team after the 30 races and I\u2019m proud of the lads and really pleased for the supporters,\u201d Stead said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course we were disappointed that we couldn\u2019t hang on at their place, especially after we\u2019d got off to such a strong start and got ourselves in a pretty good position.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I think when you look at it overall, to only lose by two points at Belle Vue was a good effort from the lads and don\u2019t forget, we forced them into a tactical as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt left us coming back to Sheffield with a lot of belief and we just carried on where we left off and just did what we have been doing at home since the season started.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom start to finish the lads were superb, we dominated the champions from the get-go and we put another big win on the board.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re still working our way into the season and there\u2019s still a few little things here and there the lads want to tweak, but it\u2019s been a great start and they deserve a lot of credit for what they\u2019ve done so far as a group.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Tru7 Group Tigers are back in action next Thursday (May 15, 7.30pm) when they host league leaders Ipswich at Owlerton.<\/p>\n
