HARRIERS have boosted their defensive options by securing experienced duo Keith Lowe and Jared Hodgkiss.

Lowe had been offered a new deal at the end of last season after an impressive impact when he joined the club in January.

With close to 500 senior career appearances to his name, Lowe’s credentials are unquestioned so it’s a huge boost for boss John Eustace to snap up the 30 year-old once again.

Lowe’s new contract keeps him with Harriers until the end of the forthcoming season – we’ll have his reaction to the news later today.

Meanwhile, Harriers can also confirm that Jared Hodgkiss has penned his new deal, trigged by appearances made last season, to also keep him at Aggborough for the campaign ahead.
