Elsewhere in fourth grade, Batemans Bay downed Berry-Shoalhaven Heads (129 to 9/109) at Zealand Oval, Nowra edged North-Nowra Cambewarra (4/113 to 8/111) at Zealand Oval and Sussex Inlet defeated Shoalhaven Ex-Servicemens (7/110 to 7/107) at the Thompson Street Sporting Complex.
Standouts from these three matches included Berry pair Michael McCarron (54 not out and 3/13) and Joshua Weakley (4/24), Bay's Bailey King (3/18), Nowra's Adam Watson (55 not out) and Norths' Hayden Batson (3/17).
The only other match to see a result, due to the wet conditions, was Basin ousting Sussex (5/98 to 8/97) in second grade, with Troy Cole (3/20) and Liam O'Brien (37) starring in the win - with the other two matches in this grade seeing the points split.
In third grade, all three fixtures were drawn, while no first grade was played due to the Creighton Cup.
