JAMIE Smith wants his under-23 side to build on their opening-game victory at Blackpool when they travel to Accrington Stanley on Tuesday.
The Baggies picked up their first victory in the Checkatrade Trophy last month courtesy of a 2-1 win over the Tangerines at Bloomfield Road.
In a competition which gives our youngsters "valuable experience", the Premier League 2 boss is eyeing another scalp at the Wham Stadium.
Jamie said: "It's another real challenge for them but it'll be more valuable experience against a first-team side.
"At Blackpool we had to defend a lot of direct balls and a lot of balls into our box, which you don't always get at under-23 level.
