Malick Senior Comprehensive managed a 1-1 draw in a tough encounter against Queens Royal College on Wednesday at the QRC Grounds. The QRC supporters were vociferous, cheering on their squad in what was supposed to be a Malick home game.

Signal Hill, after a disappointing goalless draw on Saturday against Scarborough, returned to goal scoring ways yesterday on the road as they trounced Roxborough by 9 goals to 2. The result certainly made up for the sluggish start Signal Hill made to the campaign and gave their fans plenty to cheer about. Despite the victory, the game was a costly one for Signal Hill as three of their players, Anderson Taylor, Curtis Moses and Collis Joseph managed to pick up red cards in what was otherwise a comfortable victory.

'Pres' held by Moruga

Mucurapo record second straight win
