Rowledge raised Ethan Martin (above) and Totton & Eling product Tom Cheater caught the eye with fine individual performances before the third and final day of Hampshire's Under-18 County Championship match against Sussex at May's Bounty, Basingstoke, was washed out.
Martin, who has made enormous strides as an all-rounder since his attachment to the Hampshire Academy, took 5-33 as Sussex were dismissed for a first innings 147.
Cheater then hit 106 (two sixes and 14 fours) and was the mainstay of Hampshire's 196 - the two relatively low totals being down to poor shot selection as 21 wickets fell before stumps on day one.
