Wick & District Pool League

21st November 2013

Suzanne Carter's Camps1 team came back from 4-2 down against Mountain Dew on Monday night to earn their third draw in four games so far this season. Carter was the standout player in this match, winning all three of her games to help her side take a 6-5 lead. The Mountain side played well in the last game as both teams gained a point in this 6-6 draw.

Retro1 remain top of the second division after a comfortable 8-4 win against Francis St Club. Retro2 secured their first league win on Monday night, as they defeated Harpers 10-2 thanks to a great team performance. Crown2 recovered well after last weeks cup exit at the hands of the Seaforth Club, and remain in second place after a 9-3 victory against Bayview2.

The big match in division one saw Lybster's Bayview1 host Crown1 in an important match for both teams. The first four frames were shared, before Johnny Mackay defeated Crown1 captain Alan Larnach to make it 3-2 to the home side. Mackay (whose arm was in a cast) played through the pain to put in the performance of the night. Bayview1 took control of the match and ran out 8-4 winners to win a crucial three points.

Sinclair Bay and Camps2 could not be separated in the singles with their match tied at 3-3, before the Camps side won four doubles games in a row to take all three points. David Hendry looks to have found his form again as he got his first total clearance of the season in his doubles game.

Ryan Cook's Blackstairs team won their first league game of the season in style, defeating Seaforth Club 10-2 in a one-sided match. The Commercial remain top of division one despite dropping two points in a 6-6 draw against the Queens. Both teams played extremely well with a draw the fair result in the end.
