The Premier League returned to action in earnest this week with matches on Sunday, midweek and more this weekend.
Carson Fagan scored a hat-trick for Scholars International as they beat Academy 4-2. Ziecko Herrera got the other Scholars goal and Academy’s marksmen were Yannick Solomon and Ernie Jacques.
Theron Wood took his goals tally for the season to 11, hitting a brace for Bodden Town as they beat North Side 3-0.
Sunset are doing well on their return to the top flight, defeating Cayman Athletic 3-0 thanks to strikes by Kevin Guirey, David O’Connell and Justin Pierre.
Dwayne “Gaza” Wright took his scoring record to nine for Elite but they lost to table toppers George Town 2-1. Miguel Simms and Ariel Tatum were the George Town scorers.
Gaza has been the league’s top scorer for the past three seasons and normally at this stage of the campaign he is way in front, so it could all go down to the final games for the Golden Boot.
Matches were played on Wednesday and Thursday night and the next round of games are on Sunday.
At the TE McField Annex, George Town play Sunset at 5 p.m. before Academy face North Side at 7 p.m.
