TRELAWNY, Jamaica — Two days after they were held 0-0, ending their perfect start, William Knibb Memorial took out their frustrations on Trelawny neighbours Cedric Titus High in their ISSA daCosta Cup Zone C game at Martha Brae on Wednesday.

The teams had played out a stalemate on Monday, both seeing their perfect win records go up in smoke and Wednesday’s game was expected to be another closely contested game but the home team exploded for five goals in the first half.

Jahiem Sankar scored a first half hat-trick to lead William Knibb to their sixth win as they took over sole leadership of Zone C with 19 points, three more than Cedric Titus, who had only conceded three goals in their previous six games.

Amari Christopher Reid gave William Knibb the lead after just 10 minutes before Sankar took over the show and scored his hat-trick in a 21-minute span, in the 16th 20th and 37th minutes.

Orville Brown made it 5-0 in the 40th minute while Jayar Skyers added the sixth goal in the 73rd minute.

Manchester High, meanwhile, moved to within a point of booking their place in the next round after blanking May Day High 7-0, two days after beating them 8-0.

The win took Manchester High to 22 points with one game to go, against deCarteret College, who played out a 0-0 draw against contenders Belair High on Wednesday.

Both Belair, who will play Mt St Joseph Catholic High, and deCarteret College can also finish with 22 points in what is set to be a tense final round of matches in Zone F.

Former champions Frome Technical and Clarendon College, both extended their perfect records to seven straight wins as they beat Green Island High and Thompson Town respectively.

Javel Clarke scored all three goals for Frome Technical in their 3-1 win that took them to 21 points while Clarendon College won their game 8-0.
