Batting first, the away side only lost one wicket, captain Jackson Blair on 83 while Josh Adams scored a composed 102 off 110 balls and Dion Blair clipped 45 en route to 1-269.
A steady stream of wickets meant Trevallyn was never truly in the contest as Nasrullah Khan (4-13) and Dilan Sandagirigoda (3-33) did the damage with tail-ender Rajeev Anand top-scoring with 19 not out.

HADSPEN showed little sign of disappointment from Thursday's loss as they pummeled ACL to the tune of 192 runs at home.
ACL dismissed dangerman Thanuka Dabare for minimal harm but was unable to knock over teammate Dilan Jayalath, who eclipsed Adams' effort with a run-a-ball 105.
It wasn't the centurion who provided the fireworks however, with Englishman Jona Watts smacking 63 off 30 balls to further drive the point home as captain Liam Reynolds collected 57 off 59, steering the Chieftains to 5-288.
ACL's run chase started on shaky ground as the man who couldn't be kept out of the game, Jayalath, ran out opener Kieran Davey for 5 and John Kedey stumped for 4 off the bowling of Dabare.
Simon Chappell's 19 proved to be the major batting highlight as Watts had a game to remember, snaring 5-18 off his six.
BEACONSFIELD grabbed a much-needed win to stay in touch with its top-two rivals, taking the points against Perth in a 109-run victory.
While opening duo Tharushan Iddamalgoda and Drew Clark both fell for ducks, Ramesh Nimantha came ever so close to the third century of the round - falling for 98 off 107.
Lower-order scoring from Malcolm Jones (18) and John Sims (27 off 15) filled the Swans with confidence heading into their bowling innings off the back of a 49-run partnership.
Matthew Williams strived to keep his side in the contest, scoring 30 at the top of the order but Iddamalgoda couldn't be stopped, making up for his low score with an incredible 6-15 off his seven overs.
