Damion Bright scored for the second straight match as Queen’s Park handed table toppers Petrotrin its first loss of the season in  T&T Hockey Board Men’s Championship Division, 2-1 at the National Hockey Centre, Tacarigua on Thursday night.

Going into the match, the Oilmen (25 points) had a four point lead over defending champions Notre Dame and could have taken a major step towards regaining the crown.

However, the Parkites coming off a 2-2 draw with Notre Dame had other ideas and took the lead as early as the second minute through Jerazano Bell while Bright made it 2-0 ten minutes later which his team held until the end of the first quarter,

In the second period, Petrotrin went on an all out offensive to get back into the match and it was rewarded by a 30th minute goal from Atiba Whittington to trail 2-1 at the half-time interval.

A lot more was expected from both teams in the final two periods, but for all their efforts both Petrotrin and Queen's Park failed to add to their tally as the Parkites held on for a vital win to improve to 19 points from 12 matches and two left to play while the Oilmen remained on 25, four more than Dames.

Paragon is fourth with 13 points from nine matches, while Defence Force has 12 from 11 matches in fifth spot.

Last night, Petrotrin had another chance to inch closer to the crown when it faced Defence Force while Courts Malvern came up against Notre Dame while in the lone Women's Championship Division encounter, Notre Dame also came up Courts Malvern.

At the top of the Women’s Championship Division standing is Georgetown Cricket Club of Guyana which ended its 12-match campaign with 20 points while the trio of defending champion Paragon, Harvard Checkers and Shandy Carib Magnolias, are all on 13 points.

However, Magnolias has five matches to play while Paragon and Notre Dame has four and Checkers three to complete their campaigns.
