Lancashire overcame Yorkshire 36-6 in a convincing Academy Origin performance on Sunday at Warrington's Halliwell Jones Stadium.
Matthew Foster opened the scoring for Lancashire, Harry Smith kicking the first of six goals from as many attempts to hand the home side a 6-0 lead.
That quickly doubled through Jayden Hatton, before Jack Welsby's converted effort handed his side an 18-0 half-time lead.
The interval didn't halt their momentum as Ethan Havard grounded a loose kick within minutes of the restart.
Reece Hamlett then bagged a try on the hour mark, before John Hutchings scored impressively in the corner.

Women's Origin | Lancashire 16-10 Yorkshire
Lancashire won the battle of elite Women's Rugby League as they ground out a hard-fought 16-10 win over Yorkshire at the Halliwell Jones Stadium.
Wigan's Michelle Davis opened the scoring on ten minutes, Castleford Tigers full back Tara Stanley with a touchline conversion.
Yorkshire quickly hit back through Leeds Rhinos captain Lois Forsell, Cas' Katie Hepworth with the extras to make it 6-6.
Despite chances for both sides, defence was on top and the scores remained level at the break.
Yorkshire hit the front shortly after the restart, Hepworth gathering a kick from fellow Tiger Georgia Roche to touch down, though she couldn't convert her own try.
