Andy Siddall (4-57) and Stuart Hudson (3-44) helped restrict Rawdon to 148-9 of which Steven Duckworth hit a half century. Duckworth (3-34) and Dennis Rock (3-19) made Kirkstall work hard but they couldn't shift opener Harrison.

t rivals Guiseley also won but had to be content with second place just a year after gaining promotion. Captain Dave Pennett produced a spell of 8-35 as Bilton were kept to 115-9 with Miles Corrish unbeaten on 47. Australian Dean Russ saw Guiseley to an eight-wicket win with an unbeaten 32.
That defeat confirmed Bilton's relegation and they were joined by Pool whose defeat completed Collingham's great escape.
Having been bottom for most of the season until the first week in August, last season's champions managed to pick up three vital wins to avoid the drop.
As so often the star of the show was Toby Jacklin whose season-best 9-36 in 18-5 overs skittled out Pool for 107 in reply to Collingham's 160 in which opener Brian Leigh scored 60.
Phil Critchley (90) and Ben Quick (4-24) were the main contributors as Beckwithshaw beat Green Lane by 116-runs while North Leeds made sure of third place at Burley in a match dominated by bowlers. Shane Etherington (5-50) helped restrict North Leeds to 106 but then Greg Kennedy (5-30) and Farhan Khan (3-20) had the home side reeling from 3-4 to 68 all out.
Calverley took full advantage of Knaresborough's 24-point penalty to grab the second promotion spot from Division Two.
Down in tenth place in late May and still in the bottom half of the table at the end of July, Calverley have picked up 27 points from the last six games they've played.
They took control of the match, confining Tong Park to 109-7 but with Mick Scott (4-26) pegging away there were a few nervy moments before Shane Franklin (38) and Shaid Bashir (34no) clinched victory.
They still needed the other results to go for them and Follifoot came up trumps beating second placed Steeton by seven wickets to give Calverley promotion by just a point.
Silsden rounded off their season as Division Two champions with a win over Knaresborough the side they have shared the title race with for most of the campaign. The evergreen Jon Corcoran (57no) top-scored in Knaresborough's 116-3 but Shaheed Nadeem hit five sixes in his 39 and put on 71 for the third wicket with Yasser Ali (65) to give Silsden the win.
Gary Topp (55) and Neil Kettle (54) put on a century for the opening partnership to put Harden on their way to a winning draw over relegated New Rover.
