National Housing Trust ‘A’ got past Transport Authority, 44-42, with Jodi Ann Ffrench-Kentish scoring 25 from 32 and Crystal Grant with 19 from 28. For the losers, Kadian Mendez scored 32 from 46.

Lorriane Lewis with 38 from 43 paved the way for Sagicor to beat National Commercial Bank, 47-24. Patricia Reid got 11 from 22 for

the losers.

Jamaica Infrastructure outscored Digicel, 35-28, with Shelly-Ann Williams scoring 28 from 37.
