Station Road A shocked the Window Outlet Cockermouth and District Snooker League’s top-tier leaders this week with a superb home performance to record a 4-2 win.
The home side were quick out of the blocks as Tom Thompson took the first and team-mates Mike Walker and Darren Lawson made it 3-0.
An Alan Moore victory pulled one back for Cons but with a black-ball win for Geoff Smith an unassailable 4-1 Station A lead was gained, only for the Cons’ Ryan Barker to secure a well-deserved point.
The United Club moved to the top of Division Two as they drew 3-3 at home against Division One’s Station Road B.
A Kevin Kirkham first-frame win was cancelled out by United’s Clive Lister and, as Sal Cakmak impressively won the third, the United Club were 2-1 up.
A black-ball victory by Andrew Mitchelhill put his side 3-1 up but wins from Simon Frazer and Shaun Ayre delivered parity.
Workington’s Veterans Club improved their position in the Division One table with a 5-1 home victory against second-tier Maryport Social.
A low-scoring first-frame victory for Ben Scott was as good as it got for the Maryport side as Paul Mostyn started the ball rolling with a win.
Wins for Mike Dawson and Steve Garroway put Vets 3-1 up but it was team-mate Mark Tatton who produced the Vets’ highlight with a remarkable victory.
The last frame saw a strong lead finished as Kevin Basnett cleared for a 5-1 match win.
Finally, Division One’s Workington Golf Club added five points to the six they achieved last week with a 5-1 win over Division Two’s Flimby Social.
