Sub-Team KO surprises

Veterans League

Two teams from Division 5 knocked out higher division opponents to progress through to the quarter-finals in yesterday's Round of the Last 16. Top of Division 5 team Kirkheaton Con B dismissed Division 4 team Thongsbridge B with a 147-130 aggregate scoreline. Neighbours Kirkheaton C&BC B saw off a 9-man Primrose Hill Lib team and they remain on course to clash with their club's A team in the semi-finals. The Kirkheaton C&BC A side had a bye in Thursday's round after Lockwood Con B withdrew. Lots to happen before the prospect of an all-Kirkheaton C&BC semi-final becomes a reality but the dream goes on.

The one all-Division 5 clash saw Hemplow B get the better of Lindley BC B by 150-144 and they will meet Kirkheaton Con B in the semi-finals. The all-Division 4 match was won by Meltham B who beat David Brown Sports 145-119. There will be a Marsh derby tie in the quarter-finals after Marsh Lib A beat Paddock I&C in the all-Division 3 clash by 144-110 and Division 4 promotion hopefuls, Marsh United B, had a big 152-109 win over Almondbury BC B. All the results are below along with the Quarter-Finals draw but without the neutral greens which will be added later.
