An exciting 38-35 win for the RSVG Police Youth Club over SVG Medical Schools Combined, extended their run of trumps. Ewansie Penniston, who had 14 points and Maxian Dublin, 11, led the way for the Police Youth Club, while Carl Alo Obenewo poured in 11 points for the medical students.   

But, it was a walk on the court, as BlueChip Academy blew over Year Two Technical 75-29. Jermaine John led BlueChip Academy’s scoring with 25 points, while Kirsta Bailey added 14. Leyhmar Campbell scored 14 points for Year Two Technical.

And, Tuesday’s other fixture, saw the Division of Teacher Education recording their first win, beating Year Two Arts Sciences and General Studies, 29-18. Akeel Jack registered 12 points for the Teachers team, while Donja Peniston had 11 points for Year Two Arts, Science and General Studies.
