BARWON Heads<\/a> remain the only undefeated side in the BPCA A1 Grade competition after easily holding off Barrabool at Ceres Recreation Reserve.<\/p>\n

After winning the toss and electing to bat, last year\u2019s grand finalists posted an impressive total of 5\/205 after 40 overs, thanks to 43 and 45 runs from Matthew Bode and skipper Daniel Donaldson respectively.<\/p>\n

Four wickets from Jacko Mallett and three from Donaldson saw the Seagulls bowl the Bulls out for just 168 in the final over. Barrabool now sit 1-2 after three rounds.<\/p>\n

Anglesea<\/a> secured their second win of the season after holding off Drysdale in a tight finish. The Roos batted first and made 8\/138, before a four-wicket haul from skipper Dylan Taylor saw them topple the Hawks for 132 in the 37th over.<\/p>\n

Reigning premiers Armstrong Creek<\/a> took care of Queenscliff at home, with their total of 219 proving to be enough thanks to 55 runs from Nikhil Kapoor and an unbeaten 51 from Jack Maclean.<\/p>\n

Queenscliff finished their innings 27 runs behind and now sit 0-3 and last on the ladder to start the season.<\/p>\n

Jan Juc improved to 2-1 on the year after successfully defending their total of 3\/196 against Inverleigh. Nick Hyden made 72 not out with the bat, while Joey Rew and Ryen Smith took three wickets apiece in a bowling attack that bowled the Kookaburras out for just 146.<\/p>\n

In A2 Grade, the competition remains even with four sides sitting at 2-1 and four sides sitting at 1-2. Collendina cruised to a win over St Leonards, Winchelsea beat Newcomb, Ocean Grove beat Portarlington and Surf Coast beat Wallington.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
