Whitby Town picked up their first win of the season as former Middlesbrough FC youngster Harry Green blasted a hat-trick.
Town, who are bottom of the NPL Premier, were in Emirates FA Cup action on Saturday.
They took on former manager Chris Hardy and seven ex-players as Northern League First Division highflyers Bishop Auckland visited the Towbar Express Stadium.
Green broke the deadlock on 12 minutes after sliding home from a long clearance. Aaron Haswell doubled the Blues' advantage on 25 minutes.
Green struck again early in the second half with substitute Marcus Giles making it four with only his second touch, just after the hour.
Green wrapped things up with his third and Whitby's fifth, ten minutes from time.
Joint-manager Nathan Haslam was happy with a clean sheet on debut for defender Kevy Tarangadzo and paid tribute to Town's opponents:
Town earned £2,250 from the victory and will be in the hat for the second qualifying round, with National North sides joining Monday's draw, including Scarborough Athletic in there too.
