Bistro close calls and one shock

Veterans League

There were three ties in the Round of the Last 32 of the Bistro KO that saw the tightest of results with one point between the teams. One of those was between teams from the top three of Division 1 where Golcar Lib A knocked out last season's beaten finalists Longwood by 84-83. Ironically one of the other one-point difference results saw Lockwood Con B squeeze past Lindley Lib B with the two winning teams going up against each other on the next round.

The third one-pointer saw Lindley BC B see off fellow Division 5 opponents Holmfirth B by the most slender of margins 124-123. Just one shock result with Division 1 high-flyers, Lowerhouses, going out of the competition to Division 3 table toppers Almondbury Lib by 106-97 at Marsh United.
