Grimsby Town extended their unbeaten run in the Blue Square Bet Premier to 13 games after a 2-0 win over AFC Telford on Saturday.
The Mariners left it late but struck twice in the last 10 minutes to grab all three points.
The opening stanza was keenly contested but the Bucks looked more likely to open the scoring as the half finished goalless.
However, it was the hosts who took the lead in the 81st minute. Liam Hearn provided the pin-point cross from the left and Rob Duffy headed home from close range, with visiting goalkeeper Ryan Young out of position.
Only seven minutes after the opener, Grimsby secured the three points as they doubled their lead.
AndI Thanoj set up the hosts' second as he made room for himself in the Telford area before squaring for Frankie Artus, who placed his shot low and into the bottom corner of Young's goal.
The result sees the Mariners in seventh position in the standings, two points below the final play-off spot, while the Bucks are 18th, two points clear of the relegation zone.
