Defending champions Queen's Park Cricket Club moved to within two wins of retaining its Men’s Open Division T&T Hockey Board Indoor Championship title after ending the five-team round-robin series with a perfect 4-0 record at the Woodbrook Youth Facility, Hamilton-Holder Street, Woodbrook on Sunday last.
In the final round of matches, the Parkites outplayed Fatima 5-3 led by a double from Shaw Lee Quay to follow up on Saturday’s 4-2 defeat of Defence Force.
The trio of Aidan De Gannes, Jordan Reynos and Darren Cowie chipped in with a goal each for the Parkites, who ended with maximum 12 points, five ahead of second-placed Paragon while Jordan Vieira netted all three items for Fatima, which ended fourth.
Defence Force ended third with a 2-2 record after crushing Petrotrin 9-2 also on Sunday, with Mickel Pierre, Roger Daniel and Gerrard Ferguson all scoring twice.
In the semifinals today (Saturday), QPCC faces Fatima, which earned three points via a Disciplinary Committee decision over Petrotrin while Defence Force tackles Paragon.
The Women’s Open Division semifinals are also set for Saturday with title-holders Shandy Carib Magnolias against Ventures while Harvard Checkers battles Paragon.
Last night in the Mixed Veterans semifinals, QPCC met Defence Force and Fatima came up against Police, while in the Trinity Men Division, Carib tackled Notre Dame and Shape tackled QPCC.
