Dennis Seller and Geoff Townsend (both 6-5-5) each bagged 16 dolls as unbeaten Cricketers stayed on track for the Premier Division title with a 2-1 win at Garsington Sports.

It did look like Sports would wreck Cricketers' unbeaten record as they took the first leg 30-27.

However, Cricketers claimed the next two legs 30-26, 33-27 to cement victory. Andy Beal (6-3-5) top-scored for Garsington with 14 dolls.

Kevin Giles (5-5-5) clanged off 15 dolls as The George demolished The Fox.

George whipped off 96 dolls with Giles's teammates Martin Cook and Dave Watkinson (both 5-5-4) each bagging 14 in the 33-18, 33-25, 30-18 scoreline.

In the Rose Hill Dwarfs and Quarry Gate A in Division 5 with all the legs going to a three-stick shoot-out.

Rose Hill set all three legs with 22, 21 and 16, and it was Quarry's anchorman Terry Cox who hit the dolls to take them to three sticks with three scores of two. Quarry Gate then took all three legs on the three sticks.

Rose Hill's Adam Baker clanged off a sixer in his unlucky 13.

In Section 6, Highfield Club squeezed past the Post Office with a narrow 2-1 home victory.

They tied the first leg 14-14 with Highfield sneaking it on three sticks.

Post Office then took the second 12-9, but were unlucky again in the third, losing out again on three sticks after tying the leg 11-11. Mark Bayliss (4-3-5) top-scored with 12 dolls.

Despite 13 dolls from Tony Lane (5-6-2), North Oxford Con Club slipped to second after losing to Vikings A.

Losing the first leg 22-15, they fought back to take the second 22-20. However, in the final leg, they fell two dolls short of the target.

Anchorman Dave Spriggs was the hero for New Club C as they beat Star B in Section 8 by just a doll.

Star set all three legs and the first leg with 17, but Spriggs clanged off the two dolls needed to take the leg by one.

New Club sealed victory in the second 23-17, but in the third, Spriggs bagged the three dolls to take the leg 17-16.

Shelley Arms stay top of Section 9, despite losing at the Democrats, for whom Steve Champ (4-4-4) threw well for his dozen dolls. RESULTS
